Where is heaven located now?

Did nobody ever tell you that the Eden story in the bible is made up bullshit?

How the hell do you think they make bricks? You take some clay, shape it into the shape you want, then bake it to harden it.

I hate this "that bible passage doesn't mean what it means" crap that Christians love to throw around.

If you take Clay and bake made baked clay aka ceramics. not bricks (nothing that will support any type of structure.)

Clay is nothing more than a media or filler. in order for a brick to be structurally sound there needs to be a binding agent in the presents of a compatiable reinforcing agent with in the brick itself, and a way to set it/cure it.

Which means there are potentially 1000's of possiable combinations of materials coming together under the same descriptive term, "Brick." ever been to home depot? do they sell just one kind of brick? is a brick you can use to trim out your garden the same brick used to support the foundation of a house?

This isn't about chopping the meaning of the bible's content up. This is just basic building material knowledge. Which is what is need to limit how tall one can estimate a structure to be.

If a building material content is unknown then it is unknown, and no one can truly limit what can and can not be done. If one insists then that insistence can be accurately identified as faith.

I cannot believe we are discussing bricks, but:

They needs a huge quantity of bricks.
It is unlikely they imported them for the job (transport back then - don't talk about it).
Therefore they baked bricks using clay and a locally available material (probably straw).
As far as I know there is no naturally occurring material in the area that has not been tried and tested.

Therefore, it is fairly safe to assume that they did not have special bricks.

Even if they did there remains the issues of thickness of the wall at the bottom and the support for the structure.

The great Pyramid was the tallest structure on earth for 4,500 years. The Egyptians knew how to build them (by failing many times - see the bent pyramid).

The probability that these builders could get anywhere near Egyptian heights is tiny - let alone above that.
