I'd like this to be a fairly trivial thread.
Atlantis, I assumed there was some basis for it. A lost city or some such somewhere. Not really, almost certainly just a metaphor in a one of Plato's dialogues. Even the ancients thought so.
The Exodus, I didn't believe in the miracles or anything, just that the Jews were in Egypt at some point and later driven out. Basically no evidence for any of it. They probably just grew out of the local philistine population. At most, they were Levantine clients of the pharoahs at some point.
What about you folks?
