If you believe an stone weighing 80 tonnes was pushed up a ramp, than the concept of "Faith" should be right up your alley.

Your article says nothing about how the stones were lifted up the pyramid, it just has theories about how a stone (only weighing 2.5 tons mind you) was transported across the desert using sleds.

Quote:They likely wet the sand. “For the construction of the pyramids, the ancient Egyptians had to transport heavy blocks of stone and large statues across the desert,” the university said. “The Egyptians therefore placed the heavy objects on a sledge that workers pulled over the sand. Research … revealed that the Egyptians probably made the desert sand in front of the sledge wet.”
Except this theory doesn't work for the pyramids located in central America.
