One of the most blatant instances is the page quote, where God states that His last miracle before the 1969 Mets was parting the Red Sea. It appears that God has a really lousy memory, because He did a ''lot'' of miracles after the Red Sea thing.

Hardly. God does plenty of post-Red Sea miracles in the scriptures shared by Judaism and Christianity — for example, making manna rain from heaven and water come out of a stone in the journey out of Egypt.
