Lesson in bioloigical science and ecology.  For discussion. 

Can you re- arrange on a scientific basis the sequencing of the plagues of ancient Egypt in the time of Moses? Which of the 10 plagues constitute the 7 plagues as mentioned in another version?   Which of these are probably not true?  What intervening events or causes are important to support your revision?

• The country is overrun by giant frogs.
