This is knee slappingly hilarious, hence the reason for posting here under Humor.
This is a joke. But sadly the joke is on us. For the longest time they have been telling us that there was no Moses, there was no Abraham, there was no David, yet we, the butts of the joke insist .

Moses Was Hallucinating on Mt. Sinai: Study
A researcher at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem claims in a recent study that mind-altering substances were regularly used during religious rites from biblical times performed by Israelites. Professor Benny Shanon said of Moses on Mt. Sinai:
"It was either a supernatural cosmic event, which I don't believe, or a legend, which I don't believe either, or finally, and this is very probable, an event that joined Moses and the people of Israel under the effect of narcotics."
Shanon, who admits using ayahuasca, an Amazonian religious drug, has effects akin to acacia tree bark mentioned by the Bible. He said the "burning bush" was likely a hallucination. "The Bible says people see sounds, and that is a classic phenomenon."
