Christianity is suspect based on the stories of the Bible. The Exodus is a great example of that. Looking at the story logically, you can conclude that it didn't happen.
This is what Egypt lost during the exodus:
-2 Million Jewish slaves
-All first born children
-Livestock
-Poisoned Nile River
-The Pharaoh's army
That would be completely devastating to the Egyptian economy. How did the empire recover after losing that much? Why is there no historical record whatsoever of those events. Why do we not know of the name of the Pharaoh of the Exodus story?
Then those 2 million former Jewish slaves lived in the desert for 40 years. Despite that, there is not 1 bit of archaeological evidence of them living in the desert. They would have left something behind if they stayed that long. Not to mention you can look at it logically to know the story is not true. Where did those 2 Million Jews get the water to drink from in the desert for 40 years? Archaeologists dug through the Middle East for decades in hopes of finding evidence of the Exodus story and they haven't a single bit of evidence for the story. In fact, there is no evidence that Jews were slaves in Egypt in the 1st place.
