true

2018-09-27 15:07:24 UTC  

and it is

2018-09-27 15:07:30 UTC  

im not sure about the "pretty historically accurate" bit though

2018-09-27 15:07:49 UTC  

idk enough about history for that

2018-09-27 15:07:56 UTC  

there are a bit of incomprehensions due to the poor tralsation

2018-09-27 15:08:02 UTC  

yes there are some evidences backed by archaeology

2018-09-27 15:08:15 UTC  

but it isn't majorly qualified to say be a historical source for example

2018-09-27 15:08:16 UTC  

Genesis is poorly translated

2018-09-27 15:08:26 UTC  

the word used for days in the creation doesn't mean day

2018-09-27 15:08:30 UTC  

it can mean era aswell

2018-09-27 15:08:32 UTC  

genesis

2018-09-27 15:08:53 UTC  

isn't the genesis creation story borrowed from the babylonian creation myth

2018-09-27 15:09:02 UTC  

the bible isnt historically accurate at all

2018-09-27 15:09:04 UTC  

and from some other creation stories of that time?

2018-09-27 15:09:11 UTC  

sure they are

2018-09-27 15:09:20 UTC  

most stories of the Bible are taken by nearby cultures

2018-09-27 15:09:27 UTC  

that's why I said "pretty accurate"

2018-09-27 15:09:27 UTC  

yeah

2018-09-27 15:09:33 UTC  

not completely

2018-09-27 15:09:37 UTC  

id say it's hardly accurate tbh

2018-09-27 15:09:41 UTC  

not even pretty

2018-09-27 15:09:42 UTC  

you have to know what to take as a myth and what not to

2018-09-27 15:09:51 UTC  

it isnt historically accurate at all

2018-09-27 15:10:11 UTC  

advance some evidence maybe?

2018-09-27 15:10:13 UTC  

but some loony christians blur the line between myth and fact

2018-09-27 15:10:20 UTC  

^

2018-09-27 15:10:23 UTC  

the Exodus, a few problems with it

2018-09-27 15:10:33 UTC  

first, the egyptians didnt use slave labor

2018-09-27 15:10:34 UTC  

other than the exodus?

2018-09-27 15:10:44 UTC  

partially correct

2018-09-27 15:10:45 UTC  

wait _what_?

2018-09-27 15:10:59 UTC  

Egyptians did use slaves for a slight period

2018-09-27 15:11:00 UTC  

they didnt use slave labor in their construction projects

2018-09-27 15:11:04 UTC  

sorry im not educated at all about ancient civilisation

2018-09-27 15:11:05 UTC  

true

2018-09-27 15:11:14 UTC  

so excuse the ignorance

2018-09-27 15:11:23 UTC  

you have to know that the pyramids for example weren't built by slaves

2018-09-27 15:11:29 UTC  

rather by well paid workers

2018-09-27 15:11:35 UTC  

the entire population of egyptian was a couple million, so 600,000 people leaving would be a bit obvious

2018-09-27 15:11:51 UTC  

i think it was about 1/5 the population

2018-09-27 15:12:19 UTC  

again
