Did witnessing Jesus' transfiguration change Peter's view on suffering?

Jesus took Peter, James and John up into a high mountain, where his appearance changed, and they saw him talking to two men. Somehow, the disciples knew without question that these strangers were Moses and Elijah. Read literally, the sole reason for this journey was to let the three disciples see Jesus talking to Moses and Elijah. Yet they learnt nothing from the experience and were even instructed to tell no one - it was as if the transfiguartion never happened.
In spite of this life-changing event, and presumably its absolute proof that Jesus was the Messiah, Peter learnt nothing and even went on to deny Jesus.

Why could the Transfiguration cause problems for Christians today?
The Transfiguration of Jesus is an event in the gospels, in which Jesus took Peter, John and James up a mountain, where they saw his appearance change and he spoke to Moses and Elijah. They heard the voice of God from heaven. It is reported that over 90 per cent of scholars now believe that the Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt never took place. Without an Exodus, you have no Moses. And without Moses, how could the story of the Transfiguration be true? And if the story of the Transfiguration is not true, then how much more of the gospel stories is not true. This is why the Transfiguration may cause problems for Christians today.
