2) Later in the history of the Earth, and with the fervent help of Pharaoh Amenhotep IV, aka "Moses," people were convinced to believe in only one god -- the sun. Otherwise, known as the "sun of god."
Moses was real enough, learnt to read and write in the Pharaoh's court and visited the now deserted Amarna where he read on a pillar Akhenaten's Prayer To The Sun God and he copied it down and rewrote it as Prayer To The One God and was universally aclaimed as being the author. When hyreoglyphics became translatable thanks to the discovery of the Rosetta Stone, the original column was successfully translated when found.
Here is the text only, from a web page of mine:
Archaeological finds, shown to the world in a Discovery TV programme, Who Was Moses?, have found that the Book of Exodus in the Old Testament was quite accurate in its telling, apart from the fact that its dates are some 400 years out. It actually took place around the year 2000BC. Moses, an extremely literate man had been educated by the Egyptian court. It is supposed that it was he who actually wrote the Book of Exodus.
The plagues were supposed to have been sent by Moses to punish the intransigence of the Egyptians. But where they? In 2000BC the volcanic island of Santorini exploded with such force that virtually the whole island was destroyed (see note below). Egypt was bombarded with "fire and brimstone" at exactly the same time - which in turn gave way to the "dust" and also the darkening of the skies. A plague of frogs was also reported in Exodus; just the same as in the USA following the eruption of Mount St Helens. Naturalists reported an explosion in the frog population. Flies have always been a problem in Egypt when the time of the Nile floods. Their proliferation was immense. Again, just as there was a massive increase in insect population after St Helens erupted.
When Moses was supposed to lead the people of Israel across the Red Sea it was in fact, according to the original Hebrew - across the Yam Suph - which means in Hebrew Sea of Reeds - NOT the Red Sea. The Yam Suph is in fact a region to the north of the Red Sea between the Red Sea and the Nile Delta and linked to the sea by channels. When the tidal wave crossed the Mediterranean Sea, it was preceded by a massive withdrawal of water before the tidal wave crossed the coast and drowned the Yam Suph. In 1940, the same volcano erupted and eye witnesses on the Island of Crete described the coast emptying of water to such an extend that the fish could be seen jumping about on the sea bed, then a 10 foot high tidal wave hit the coast. Also, pumice stone from Santorini has been found on Crete, on top of a 300-foot hill, and also in the Yam Suph. Pumice is to heavy to be carried by air, but it WILL float on water.
Moses arrived at the "Mountain of God", supposed by many to mean Mount Sinai. Was it in fact "a mount in Sinai". It was actually Mount Kharkom (spelling may be wrong), which is on the present Egypt - Israeli border. The name means "Mountain of God" - and is flat topped, like a plateau. At the base of this mountain has been found a 2000BC settlement but most remarkably, a twelve stone altar - just as described in Exodus. Also, to put the icing on the cake so to speak, has been found rock carvings, dated the same, in Hebrew - showing, amongst other things, a depiction of a the traditional idea of the 10 Commandment's type of drawing - what can best described as a double tablet with 10 compartments. It is generally believed amongst archaeologists that the Hebrew race at the time could and did write - a most literate race. Their rock carvings are in Hebrew. Moses, having been educated within the Egyptian equivalent of Oxford or Yale, was the most literate. I suppose the final proof will be when someone follows the route and finds the grave of Moses, who "never reached the promised land".

Now here is another revelation - unlike the character Moses in the well known film, The Ten Commandments, Charlton Heston, was a Caucasian, with his flowing locks and bearded face. Moses was almost certainly a black man, as he lived all his life in Africa and was therefore of that race. The reasons why this is accepted have not been found by me in my research, but accepted nevertheless. The Plagues of Egypt were caused by the volcanic eruption of Santorini, not by any divine hand and the parting of the Red Sea never took place - it was much further north in the Yam Suph, the Sea of Reeds. The original Hebrew text bears this out, it was only translation that caused the well known error, Suph being mistaken for Red not Reed. It was Moses himself who wrote the Commandments.
Finally, the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten; displaced the multi god culture of the time with a single god worship - the god RA - the sun. This is preceding the time of Moses. He wrote a poem to the sun god, which has been found in a recently discovered city in the desert, carved on some pillars. Following this man's death, Egypt reverted to the multi god society and erased the one god religion from their history. It is the same virtually word for word as some lines in the bible (sorry, cannot remember where in the Book of Psalms) but was written BEFORE the alleged biblical version. The words have been amended by whoever wrote the biblical version to reflect the scribe’s (Moses?) views and not those of an Egyptian Pharaoh. Could this have been Moses "one god" approach? Moses must have copied the original text from these pillars, substituting the word Ra for God and using it as his basis for his own "one god" theory. Or did Moses copy it word for word only for it to be later lost in translation by those who only saw what they wanted to see.
Note:
Santorini was almost certainly the site of "Atlantis" as a whole culture was obliterated in this eruption, nothing was left of the city of splendour on the island, hence the "disappearance" of Atlantis.
