You believe you know. You certainly know the Bible. You may really believe that Judaism is based on rationality not on faith but there is not a single shred of evidence for your god outside of your scripture.
John 3:16 means you have to be Christian to get into heaven

Show me a fish with scales but no fins.
There are many kosher animals out there not explicitly mentioned in the Torah, as many as there are people whose teaching is sound.
The flesh of hypocrites can be kosher, even if they say one thing and do another like christians profess to believe in a holy God but then worship that which is not God or you who professes obedience to the law but dicks around for more than 40 years worrying about whats for dinner instead.

Explain.
American bison should be kosher but unknown in the old world.
That is the definition of a fish. Find me a mammal without hair.

The Torah defines it 2,500 years ago.
I guess Moshe was a deep sea diver.
In case you were serious:
The Sphynx was developed through selective breeding, starting in the 1960s. The skin should have the texture of chamois, as it has finehairs.
This cat is wrong on so many levels.
A weak argument and easily disproven: when the red sea parted he had plenty of samples to learn from.

So you believe the sea parted?
No, do you? I do believe the Israelites may have found a path through a marsh that bogged down an army and the story grew from there. In truth, I don't believe the Exodus tale is anything more than legend.

Cool.
So you have no rational answer to Moshe making 2 scientific statements that have not been disproven in 2,500 years.
Cool.

So the Egyptian army was a bunch of wimps.
I'm sure Moshe was a smart and observant guy. Maybe a fisherman. He may well have seen 10 fish species and extrapolated from there. No supernatural information required. More likely eating only animals with fins and scales was an ancient custom by Moshe's time. Possibly based on experience.
No but neither were the Israelites. They may have come to Egypt as mercenaries not as slaves, fighting for Pharaohs and guarding Egypt's borders. There is such evidence from later times.
