How many living Egyptologists around the world are there? Is it conceivable that enough Mormon Egyptologists could infiltrate Egyptology to unite Egyptology and Mopologetics? I assume this question is somewhat tongue-in-cheek, but to take it seriously for a moment: I once heard that there are about...

Everything assumed to be history could have been written as detailed fiction... Except, as Kishkumen and Symmachus said here years ago, ancient writers didn't think like modern historical novelists.
