The ball is in your court. If you can approach the subject with an open mind and an intelligent outlook, please read the 3-MINUTE HISTORY at my Profile and fire away. To keep it simple, note the History is made up of 7 paragraphs. Ignore (for the moment) paragraphs 5 and 6.
Now, tell me what part of that history you have a problem with.
Actually, not. I do not have any theory which I am trying to get people to believe.
Now, tell me what part of that history you have a problem with.
Let's start here:
A hundred years later, this "lost" Northern Kingdom of Israel with now over 6 Million Israelites defeated the Assyrians and escaped north through the Caucasus Mountains and past the Black and Caspian Seas, to appear in history ~610 BC as The Celts. These Celts mixed with (and fought) other scattered Israelites (proto-Celts) who had escaped from Egypt by sea a thousand years earlier and established many outposts in Europe and elsewhere.
I do not recall where, in the Bible, this story is told. Can you give us chapter and verse?
