[QUOTE]Originally posted by King_Scorpion: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by ausar: [b] The Jews built the pyramid myth was popularized by Josephus. The Hebrews being the slaves of the ancient Egyptians is blindly followed by blind bible beilevers. Many theories have been attached to the pyramids. Everything from Crusaders believing that pyramids were the granary of Joseph down to energy stations for unlimited power. People sometimes want to believe in a reality that is very different from their own. [/b][/QUOTE] What a lot of people don't understand is that the Bible isn't something that was just written a few centuries ago, it's the second oldest religon in the world. These ideas probably have been harped up by Hollywood, but they definently didn't create the ideas...which, by the way, have been believed and followed for thousands of years. What a lot of people don't understand is that a lot of scriptures in the Bible are misinterpreted. Why is it so hard for you to believe that there was a large population of Israelites in Egypt at one point and were oppressed by a Pharoah...knowing they were oftentimes oppressive people? Now before you bring up chattel slavery...I never said anything about that. That's not even what's written in the Bible. Now THAT may be something that has been misunderstood by Hollywood. Back in the 40's, 50's, and 60's, when they read things about forced labor, they immediatly related that to American slavery, and that may not be the truth. Oh, not to mention the City of Ramses which is talked about in the Bible as the main place built by the Israelites was just recently found...yet again confirming biblical scripture. It's not just something followed in Christianity, but Judiasm, and Islam. I just found this AWESOME discussion thread exactly on this issue with a whopping 58 pages. Give me some time to read it all and collect my thoughts [IMG]http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/smile.gif[/IMG] [URL=http://www.mahoneymedia.com/exodus/VideoClips]http://www.mahoneymedia.com/exodus/VideoClips[/URL] Plus, I could be wrong but I'm not even sure if the Bible says the Israelites built the pyramids. I just remember the cities of Pithom and Ramses, but I could be wrong.
