if you dig around at the right places, yes. you seriously don't think they moved their dead soldiers back to great britain, do you?
no i dont think they did, but bones wouldnt be preserved, let alone 200 years ago compared to 3000 years ago.

the abscence of roughly 12 million people (not only jews were killed) would definitely be noticable. and not all the bodies were burned--millions were buried. and the stench of those burned and decaying bodies (graves weren't exactly shallow, and they were mass) would be noticable.
noticeable if you went there right after, but, it wouldnt be there anymore after a very long time. and plus if Hitler never messed up and fallen he coulda hid the whole massacre better. how do you think we know? cuz he fell, if he never fell we woulda never known. once it was all over we discover what they did to the jews.
actually up till now, MANY millions of people do not know about the Armenian Genocide. if it were hidden by the Turks and all Armenians were killed, no one would ever know of it, middle east would definitely not give in easily and say "yep we did it" actually up until today they dont admit that they did that!

um, whatever evidence you all bring up has never been right to my knowledge. but hey, give it a shot (in the proper threads, that is).
i have a few but they have been disputed against

My point was that you were dead wrong about the children of Israel being poor. Makes you look like you've never even read the Bible.
my point was for the population not the richness of the people, but anyway you proved me wrong on that

But lets get to the population.
please lets lol

We have a fairly clear description of the tabernacle and its paraphernalia. If we assume that it's historically accurate, can we use that description to estimate how many people would be required to carry the tabernacle? If so, can we use that estimate to further estimate the size of the entire group?
to answer your question: yes and no. is it possible that a form of crate was created to carry this tabernacle? istead of only people carrying it? that would lessen the number of people
or how heavy is it?

The problem we have with trying to estimate the population is that we have nothing to work with. It has been pointed out that there is not a shred of evidence that anybody escaped from Egypt to Canaan.
population number problem: have you counted Deaths? have you counted people who left? have you considered how they numbered people? meaning did they include children and/or women in teh count?
evidence problem: there simply is no evidence at all correct? but then if the bible has this big of a claim it has to have some sort of accuracy. was there such a man named...i forgot the Pharohs name...etc.
lets see all the facts that we know ARE true that are shown in the bible about the whole exodus moving thing

Re: Big Claims
lets say that the information IS hidden, do you think there would be a motive behind that?
