Teaching and learning are extensions of the field of knowledge.
To teach anything, we have to KNOW something.
But how do we know what we know?
And how much of what we know - or think we know - is really true?

Andis Kaulins is a law-trained expert in the history of civilization
who examines the alleged knowledge of mainstream historical science from the standpoint of evidence.
What does the probative evidence actually tell us about man's past?
Does this evidence support the historical judgments that have been made by the mainstream?

The case of Biblical Moses is a good example.
No probative archaeological evidence has been found for the current dating of Moses and Exodus. None. Zero.
This does not seem to disturb mainstream scientists, but it disturbs us,
especially because modern current events in the Middle East are driven by prevailing historical judgments.
In fact, either Moses is a character of fiction or he lived at a different time than currently assigned to him.
And if he lived in a different age, as we allege,
then the current mainstream history of the Middle East
and also the history of Pharaonic Egypt
is in large part simply false.

There are numerous similar evidentiary problems in historical research and chronology
and we draw our attention to these problems as we find them.
In this context, our own views must be classified as "speculative"
since they do not enjoy the support of mainstream scholars or academia.
However, the errors that we point out in meainstream research do actually exist,
so that the mainstream judgments that we criticize can not possibly be right.

There is of course no guarantee that OUR new views are correct, but the odds are in our favor.
