I'll be more impressed if any archaeological evidence is ever found to support the Jews being held in Egypt as slaves, the Egyptian empire being brought to its knees by a series of plagues.

Here's a sight you might find interesting . Don't know if it proves anything but it has a couple of nice pictures you might find interesting.

Well, there's this by Dennis Prager, which I regard as...persuasive, at least.

Then there is mention in ancient Egyptian records of the "Habiru", which is somewhat controversially linked to "Hebrew".

There is also mention of "Israel" by an ancient "Pharaoh", as his having defeated them in battle. A little more glowing for Pharaoh in the sense mentioned by Prager in the earlier article.

In short, it seems to me that "something" occurred out there some three millenia ago.
