Was Moses -- a myth?

Hey Dr. Jackson. My name is Justin. You and I talked about a year ago about demanding to know the truth about the validity of the Bible and so forth. I enjoy your CreationTruth website very much. That, along with Dr. William Lane Craig's works have helped me immensely. Please read this article and give me your thoughts on it. It was on bbc.com a while back. The article contains scientist's explanations on the so called miracles relating to Moses leading his people across the Red Sea in Exodus. It's boggled my mind. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Well Justin, the first "symptom" of this guy being against religion ... is his refusal to say 1031 BC ... instead he uses the atheist term BCE which means "Before Current Era." Lame-o ... he doesn't even want to abbreviate "Christ." He also belittles The Ten Commandments, emphasizing that there were hundreds more (the Levitical codes, etc). Then he says nobody knows who wrote them. Sure we do -- all Jews, Muslims, and Christians know -- God wrote them -- Himself. Hmm.
He then goes on to state all of the discoveries that the City of Ramses actually did exist and that "Habiru" slaves were used to build it. He then admits to the historicity of the Babylonian Captivity as recorded in the Scriptures. He then finds evidence that the baby-Moses-basket story could not have been faked centuries later. He makes the case that Moses becoming "the Prince of Egypt" was completely plausible. He then does the old favorite of trying to say that there are natural explanations for the 10 plagues of Egypt recorded in the Bible. He pulls out the old "Reed Sea" / "Red Sea" thing. Even if a tsunami did split the Red Sea for the Children of Israel -- having it dry as a bone (and deep own underneath, too) for them to drag heavy-wheeled carts across it -- would have sure been a miracle in and of itself ! The political parallels drawn are old hat, too, at the end. But ... this all really sounds good, if you can get over the BCE thing, and all of the trying to explain away the miracles! Yep, but I liked the historical affirmation part of it fine, Justin. Did you have any specific questions about it? (Just ask here on the website comments option--I'll see it.) DrJ
