Ha ha Umberto lists 4 types of people Cretins, morons, fools and lunatics Black would add a 5th case Nit-wits  Umberto descriptive lists are quite inclusive All authors makes lists Some times just to add to the word count But when Casaubon wife in, " Foucault's Pendulum" Explains the Templar's mystery list -where all gnosis secrets are revealed Well let just say it’s a fools game or plan |

I doubt anyone on RTH is as read or as philosophically minded as you are, Ed.  It does not qualify me as being "philosophically minded", I have read the "The Name of the Rose". Pulled it out and planning on re-reading it. Afterwards maybe I will tackle "Foucault's Pendulum". Cool Hanks !! Ya know-- I didn't jump on the NOTR wagon I was interested in it when it came out and knew of Umberto but I just didn't catch on nonetheless heck of master story telling ! Movie was pretty good also  I'm not a big novel reader for some reason FP really drew me in and Eco is my favorite author read on! When was asked what gave him the idea to write, The Name of the Rose” Umberto Eco replied: I felt like poisoning a monk. |

hhhhhmmmmmmmm seems like I read a post on that author many moons ago lookatthat was that by you? Anyway I'll look into him again  Well, honestly I don' t know if it was me or not. I've thought that your "voice" sounds like his for a while, but I can't remember if I ever mentioned it. I've been on here less than 2 years, so if it was longer ago than that, it wasn't me for sure. |

Which group depends on which phase of the moon is being fantasized. Well its not the geniuses Which doesn't make the list Einstein thinks the moon there When you’re not looking That may be foolish So its either the morons or the lunatics Now morons will occasionally say the right thing But for the wrong reasons So I lean towards the lunatics who do the mooning fantasy the most Cretins we don’t need to bring up except on full moons …mostly |

This has been fun, but to get back to the thread, there are now three corners to the possible answer.
When was the Exodus?
1. 1,500 BCE
2. 1,700 BCE
3. It never happened.

haven’t taken the time to watch the video Although Camereon makes a heck of video & that Jackobi dude as insightful things to postulate As far as far as the Biblical account of Exodus That I’ve never really studied well just enough to be dangerous To offer any definitive opinion I do know that the Hohokam wandered in desert For along time So its possible...  |

I enjoy watching "aliens are among us" documentaries, not propaganda and not science. I win; I am entertained.
