The Bible, what's literal and what's not?
#93
RE: The Bible, what's literal and what's not?
Spelling Cairo wrong was the least of it. Yes, it was a bad source. That doesn't necessarily mean that it contained bad information, but, well, it did.

How do we truly know when such things are "discovered?" Obviously, they were discovered 4,000 years before you think they were.

I'm extremely skeptical about the idea that aliens showed up and taught the Egyptians how to build the pyramids. I assure you, I have read a great deal on the subject and there is no reason for me to believe that aliens are the source of their knowledge.

Just out of curiosity, what is it that they "suddenly knew" that wasn't discovered until 4,000 years later?
