A Pretty awesome procedure

It's a very mysterious and powerful device and it's mystery is exceeded only by it's power.

There are pyramids all over the world, not just Egypt.
The big ones always get all the attn.
To make just one with paid craftsmen or slaves is a marvel of constructed done in any amount of time..
The interesting part I find is this, - the people that supposedly study these things and know the better, sort of let the world think the mummies have been found inside the pyramids!
Yet not one has been located in the innards.
That is just one fallacy.
When genetics is studied one has to guess why there is RH Pos and RH Neg blood.
This is problematic.
If time is spent on this subject it would seem logical the roots of human ancestry is not as simple as
taught.
Creation or evolution gets a little convoluted.
To become bipedal is to change the skeleton structure by a bunch, not a little.
Written language seems to stop just 6000 years ago.
Most of the known history seems to start about then.
There has to be a lot of pages missing.
Yet most of us just move on and do not for a moment think about this gigantic chasm.

True enough. I climbed the one at Chichen Izta. Going up wasn't bad - coming down holy gamozes!

Unless you were there and made some studies on your own, the people who "supposedly study these things and know better," are where you got every bit of factual information you know about them. If it's not true where did you get the information that it's not true, some movie? No, it came from the people who actually study these things. Dreamers and charlatans may have concocted stories about the mummies, don't listen to them.

Depends on who is doing the teaching. Creationists make it sound simple. Science makes is sound complex.

Well, duh. There aren't many pre-literate humans still around to tell how it was back in the old days with sign language, so the history we know is what was written. Written language actually started about 3000 - 3500 BC. Maybe those academics who "supposedly study these things and know the better" have been lying to you again. Funny it's only you that they choose to mislead.

This article thread, "Ramblings and Postulations" is not for the elementary.
It is laced with humor, but is not for the average 9th grader.
Without jumping the Pyramid (making conclusions with no real fact) show me one real piece of evidence that they were ever interned in the pyramids.
The was not one found.
Ever.
Simple.
They did find a foot, no relicks.
No prepared painted walls or ceilings.
No leftover anythings.
You could argue as the Egyptians do that pyramids were all raided by the thieves.
Really?
However it would be hard to remove the painted walls from a pyramid, don't ya think?
It would be more than difficult ,more like imposable, to get much of anything through the narrow tunnels to the different rooms in the pyramids
Now go look at where the kings were interned.
The below ground tombs are highly decorated.and ornamented.
Very , very large rooms.
Did they change their minds?
See the difference?

The average ninth grader understood that WD never stated that mummies were in the pyramids.

You're off the rails for no reason.

I am so used to wifteen taking the opposing side I jumped the pyramid...
Even i make mistakes...whoops.
But to adjust the "time concept" takes more math skills then me, or the skills my calculator has.
Let's give science it credence, they say the earth is about 4.5 billion years old.
That's right..Maybe you have heard the number but postulate that for awhile.
Say it slowly.............. 4.5 billion....
We do not have the breadth, width, depth, or even a clue how long that is, as we are not even a measurable mist or a particle of dust on the scales of time.
Its a number we say and move on.
To perhaps visualize this number we need a timeline.
Yet, not all of it because we have to subtract something for the endurance issues.
Maybe the 1st billion years the earth was not habitual at all?
Do we want to use 3.5 billion as the mean number?
( I think that is what scientist use for single cell eruptions)
Who knows right?
So if were to take a ticker tape and use it as a timeline, mark 1/4 inch line per hundred years increments, how long would out ticker tape be?
How far will it stretch out?
How many miles?
is that 253440 years per mile of tape?
Maybe you guys can answer that.
At any rate, it will be a VERY long timeline on paper!
Another interesting point why is the DNA more complicated in the ameba then humans?
If the single cell has been around longer it should have metamorph more, right?
Yet it appears exactly stagnant through passage time......why did it not become a something else?
Yet humans, here only a short time ago have a simpler DNA program.
Feel free to correct me as i/we, postulate these ramblings
I need more coffee, and neeed to get some work done.

No, my comment was a reaction to the disparagement of scientists. It happens over and over.
"Scientists tell us thus and such and it's total BS!"
"How do you know it's BS? Where do you get your information?"
"Uhh - scientists."

Its hard to believe it, but for once you and I agree on something.!

Lots of scientists have an agenda also.
They are not the shiny infomax of untainted info that they would like us to believe.
After all, - whoever is offering the money, some answers will be found to cause the eagle to puke another one. .

creationism certainly simplifies things, when taken at face value.
there is a theory - the pharaohs were concerned with grave robbers (rightly so, it turns out), thus the remote hidden grave sites.
The RH blood factors, could they not be a result of natural selection, on a base level?
natural section side note: a person with higher percentage of Neanderthal (2-4%) has a far greater chance of being addicted to nicotine, that's why a lot of lifetime smokers have the big brows and elongated heads. weird.

I think he edited his initial response (what I referred) before you saw it. He was challenging you to defend a position you didn't take (proving there were mummies in the great pyramids). He did so with his usual flair for disparagement, probably forgot he wasn't in PARF.

I got what you were saying there as well. Don't think ABurn even got that far. He was too busy being "creative".

Creature cat
If you mate a horse with a donk , ya now get something quite a bit different.
They can not produce because of the geno disparity.
I have studied a little on it and its it too complicated, but that is why they cannot reproduce.
In the human form of the monkey and no monkey RH thing it quite simply is amazing!
Humanoids seem to come from two lines or trees...(AHEM) LOL
Its a miracle that two humans can conceive at all with RH pos and RH neg.
Its part of the quondam here .Perplexing unless we just turn on the science channel and get brainwashed.
Now back to about 6000 years ago, it seem completely loonie that's the 1st time humans seem to write anything.
Was there an overnight transformation?
