I have a friend that went to Israel last summer who told me that a lot of the places that are said in the Bible are actually accurate and the cities or structures as well. Whether the guy parted the seas in order for the people to cross from persecution is something that I may never know. But there are a lot of people who have died in the the name of the one they have faith in and I find that to be crazy. I'm not that religious but I am aware of friends that are and their beliefs and their way of life. It seems as though they are more at peace than myself or any others who are not as faithful. Maybe ignorance is bliss.
