Being a bit of a Biblical scholar myself and a believer in its message, I'm both extremely interested and grateful for this work.

The entire premise of God is built around a truth claim, and posits that truth is both what leads us into being like God, but also understanding God. And regardless, I made a vow to follow the truth wherever it may lay.

My worldview has been shattered enough times now to seek out what's needed to form a better one. My hope is the others, both professional and layman people, follow this work and leverage it to improving where we stand.

The world would be a far better place if the church, religion, and all involved were not plagued by fakes, forgeries, lies, and more.

How does that work given the Egyptian's ties to their own religious beliefs? I'm not saying you're wrong, but it seems like an odd dismissal when all accounts seem to suggest the Egyptians were quite religious, and the Hebrew's God is competing.

Your phrasing seems to apply modern perspective upon ancient beliefs.

At this point, it should be an understood human principle that we trust technology over older means because the old, reliable way of working is...work.

Explaining that the technology that's supposed to make things easier only makes work potentially more work is offputting.

It doesn't help that things are sold by a business for a profit, where sales and marketing are not going to be fully transparent about the limitations of the technology. As always, a lack of communication leading to poor understanding sets false expectations and leads to distrust and resentment.
