I HATE writing essays.
I really really hate it.
this one sucks even more because
a) the material is boring in the extreme.
b) the stuff is confusing as all heck
c) I don't really care about any of it.
d) I view the Bible as a work of fiction {whoops - let that cat out of the bag}
essentially the essay is ... what do these 4 people say about the dates for the Exodus/Conquest. What are their arguments/conclusions.
Who fricken cares.
does it really really matter if B says it was 1500 BCE, because he's been doing digs around Israel and all the old cities show signs of an attacking force in 1500BCE -- H says it was 1200BCE and that he thinks B must have been sniffing glue when when he wrote his article. While J thinks that 1500 is correct because the bible says so and N thinks the bible might as well be a bedtime fairytale because everyone in those days understood that you just inserted stuff to make it a better story.
*deep sigh*
