For all you know the Pharoah could of ORDERED his servants (AKA Egypt) to do all that, or to say all that.
He could of burned crops and spread salt over them, as they did back then.
The babies, maybe the men just killed them all because the Pharoah said hmm?
Magic powers.... Ooooohhhhhh.
Must be a real comfort when you begin to think of your innevitable demise, thinking there will be a nice place to go.
And maybe it was all just made up by some ordinary guy way way back when who just either 1. wanted attention and never thought it'd stick 2. was crazy 3. wanted to control the general population with religion, if you think about it it does sound "feasable" I mean, "No stealing, no killing" blah blah blah "or else you'll go to hell for all eternity." Maybe he realized that a few years in jail wouldn't be sufficent enough to stop as much crime as this would. I mean, when you compare them, what's a couple years in jail compared to all eternity in a pit of flames right?
Or maybe we just got our records inccorectly, it happens quite often with information this old.
Perhaps all that happened was a man dropped a baby on his head, killing it, wrote it in some obscure mannar which would later be found by some archealogist and misinterpreted.
And maybe the locusts was a wasp that stung a couple people and then went about it's business.
The frogs maybe a few lizards that went into town for warmth or whatnot.
You have no proof for thinking magic is behind anything at all, but it is more possible for a bunch of small brained no-education villagers to obscurely write a record down somewhere, where somebody would find it in the future, and misinterpret it.
Why assume magic? Just so you can feel better about when you die?
PS - This thread is hopeless, I was meaning to only post the once instead it turned into a never-ending debate with no hope of any possible outcome.
I will stop visiting this thread.

Maybe tonight we'll fly so far away... We'll be lost before the dawn...

Do you know anyone, anyone at all, who would kill their first born son because their king, or president, would tell them to? Better yet, do you know EVERYONE that would do that? Because that is what happened to everyone who didn't have a goat blood on their front door.

There is absolutely no way in Hell that everyone would murder their first born son on the whim of a pharoah.

It is not possible back then. It was not possible back then either. I don't know one person who would kill his son, much less an entire kingdom of them. Whatever distorted morals you think people had back then, I can assure you that it was not accepted to kill one's own son upon anybody's word.

it was far more common back then. Russian tzar's...cant remember who...killed their own sons. We've read about quite a few people killing their own children in midevil times and farther back b4 that.
