What wonderful programming on PBS lately, documentaries on the most thrilling archaeology discoveries of ancient Egyptian tombs & their way of life . Tnite was one on the re~engineering of the famed war chariots from wheel/spoke design to yoke/ harnesses for the horses which they've found intact. These Egyptians recorded everything meticulously like all details of battles, accomlishments of their Kings, inventories & so many stories but never a mention of Moses or any Hebrews in captivity ever ? Not once?
So much history that gets ignored that is right there in all Universities, museums & astounding what they do know & have uncovered from antiquity, which paints such a clear view of human history aside from the usual Biblical crackpot sources. You find that religious based acrchaeological analysis always carrying such narrowly confined , preoccupied self centered skewed vision, fortunately we have real scientists that make the real finds, read the inscriptions & preserve the legacy of the true human past.
These fundamentalists today are still really living the medieval dream & can't see the truth for the taboos , which for them would be to know anything about the real study of human history, which the Bible is only a tiny fragment compared to the huge bulk of collections we have of the past. |
