It is racist,and obviosly so. I will explain it a third time, since you didn't read it the first two.

No one talks about how the Parthenon or the aqueducts of Rome were built by aliens, only things built by Epyptians and Mexicans. If white people create a miracle of science, it is expected. If Egyptians do it, it had to be aliens helping them. This is really not at all difficult to understand.

By the way, pretty comical that you have to tell me that you stopped following at the very end of my post, which is where most, dare I say all, stopped following.

And I wil repeat this yet again: actually, we do. We have found remains of the ramps. We have found the workers quarters. There are ancient paintings showing the use of rope gangs to erect monumental archtitecture in egypt. We even know some of the tricks they used, such as wetting the sand. Most of the pyramids in Egypt are made from limestone, which is not hard to cut.

We do know how they did it. We know.

the ramps could have been built but never used by the aliens just to mess with us.

Both the Greeks and Romans had great respect for the ancient Egyptians, as ancient to them as the Greeks and Romans are to us. Herodotus wrote extensively about Egyptian embalming. After Alexander conquered Egypt he gave the country to Ptolemy, one of his generals. He and his successors (all named Ptolemy as well) adpted Egyptian culture and religion. After the Roman conquest Egyptian religion became very popular in Rome. I must mention that eighteen hundred years later Napoleon was just as captivated. The world was breathless after the discovery of Tutankhamen. No one has ever disputed the extraordinary beauty and craftsmanship of its artifacts.

It blows my mind that people think aliens or the supernatural had anything to do with the pyramids in the first place.

I think it all started with Chariots of the Gods:

I might believe that Alien Technology was required to build the Pyramids if they were still standing, being built point-side down. That would be an engineering feat!

Denial is not the same as unexplained. A person now knowing something that others know does not mean unexplained.

Surprised no one has brought up the Sumerians, and what they had to say about 'visitors' from other places.

That’s a bit ethnocentric ...

Structures that open up interior space are far more difficulit to build. There is more science in, say, the Pantheon, than any Pyramid anywhere.
Bullcrap.

I look at the Pyramids & I see an intriguing representation of architecture, astronomy, geodesy, metrology, physics, linguistics, mathematics, theology & chemistry ... from an ancient civilization. And it raises more questions for me rather than answers.

You look at the Pyramids & you see ... a construction site?

We don't find any passages from Kufu thanking little green men. Nuff said.
Khufu?

Assuming you would look for him to speak through his hieroglyphics, you are correct.

Despite being allegedly apathetic to diety, he does thank Isis an awful lot. And Ra. Marvin the Martian, however, is MIA.

Debate it if you want. Not one crashed spaceship. Not one alien body. Not one piece of avanced technology. Etc. No evidence.
10) THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT EXTRATERRESTRIALS CAN VISIT US
Quantum 4th dimension? Who knows?

I believe there are things that my eyes won’t see & my ears won’t hear.

And once, my eyes & ears both saw & heard something impossible. But it was real. It moved the air around me with a percussive force so strong that my ears popped & I was knocked backwards.

You don’t have to believe me ... I have no evidence. But I do know one thing: There is something out there that we missed. It’s been hiding in plain sight this entire time. And as it exists in this world it is bound by the same rules of our existence & it has its own ecological footprint that we have misinterpreted.

I assume you are familiar with the concept of “overlapping” regarding the hieroglyphics that initially seemed to be pictures of aircraft? Well, overlapping is also to blame for what we miss as well as what we think we see. If we couldn’t trust what we saw when we thought we saw a helicopter drawn 4,000 years ago; what else have we missed?

The electron microscope was invented a mere 86 years ago & now we know everything. Okay.

You are not being for real here & you know it.

Mesoamerican populations did not form advanced agricultural or state societies until 2,000 years after Greece, Rome & Egypt. Mesoamerican pyramids are about 1,500 years younger than the Egyptian pyramids.

And?

The Chinese had gunpowder in the 9th century & Europe did by the 13th century. Is that racist too?

Is this the “Everybody is a winner & every participant gets a medal” narrative for History now? And Science? It was bad enough, decades ago; when the scientists who were studying racial & gender discrepancies in traits were told to lose their results or have their funding pulled. Now we see the fallout from that: “When everybody is special then nobody is”.

No, he wants an argument.

I think you just want to pick a fight, period.

Notice I’m not contesting that “Aliens did not build the Pyramids”. Just your reasoning.
