Red Algae bloom will turn water red and suffocate the fish. The Santorini eruption was hundreds of years too early for Exodus and had been debunked as bad science.
They want to claim a volcanic eruption in the Med could cause the parting of the Red Sea.
Silly and stupid.. They should start with a map.
Good heaven you come out with some rubbish girly.
From ‘The World Book Dictionary,’ (Hyksos) “A succession of six foreign rulers of Egypt—from about 1730 B.C. to about 1570 B.C; Shepherd Kings.”
I have said previously in this thread, that I believe that it was the explosion of the Island of Thira, which caused the so-called miracles at the precise time of the Exodus. But the exact date of the eruption, however, is still controversial.
Radiocarbon dating indicates that the eruption occurred about 1645—1600 BC.
[4] These dates, however, conflict with the usual date range from archaeological evidence, which is between about 1550 and 1500 BC.

Minoan eruption.
And from the Encyclopedia Britannica, ‘Hyksos’, invaders who were also called the Shepherd Kings, who in the time of “King Tutimaios” entered Egypt and took possession of it without striking a blow and it is said here that Joseph the historian, identifies them with the Israelites and that their reign ended in 1567B.C.
Although radiocarbon dating of an olive tree imbedded in lava would appear to indicate a 1600 BCE eruption of Santorini/Thera, that is, if the lava that it was imbedded in was from the actual eruption that devastated the island and its surrounding districts and not from an earlier minor lava flow, there are many archeologists who still believe that the date is contradicted by findings in Egyptian and Theran excavations.
Buried Egyptian and Cypriot pottery found on Thera were dated to a later period than the radiometric dates for the eruption, and, since the
conventional Egyptian chronology has been established by numerous archaeological studies, the exact date of the eruption remains controversial.
Because of all the contradicting evidence, the exact date of the eruption has been difficult to determine. For most of the twentieth century, archaeologists placed it at approximately 1500 BCE, but this date appeared to be too young as radiocarbon dating analysis of that
OLIVE TREE which was buried beneath
“A” lava flow from the volcano on Santorini, indicate that the particular lava flow in which the olive tree was imbedded, occurred between 1627 BCE and 1600 BCE.
But at
Tell el Dab'a in Egypt, pumice found at this location has been dated to 1540 BCE, closer to the traditionally accepted date of Thera's eruption. This matches the composition of the Thera eruption.
So there you go girl, the pumice found at Tell el Dab'a has been dated to 1540 BCE, which matches the composition of the Thera eruption, and the exodus of the Shepherd kings in 1567 B.C..
