Wait til she hears about the white supremacy behind it!

Today, my girlfriend of eight years explained to me that the Egyptian pyramids were built by aliens from Mars. I have a B.S. in Biology and an M.S. in Anthropology, and I'm working on my Ph.D. She thinks I'm an irrational idiot for telling her she's wrong. FML

Why would ANYONE think the pyramids were built by aliens from Mars?

I have a feeling your girlfriend has been watching too much Stargate..

I know it hurts my friend, but she's right. Not necessarily from Mars though, but they were of extraterrestrial origin. It's hard when you go through so much schooling to find out that much of it is controlled education. Don't worry, disclosure from our Governments will be coming soon. We're living in the Apocalypse, which is the revealing of the truth, not the end of the world. Love Love Love to all.

you forgot the /s to let people know you're kidding.

Well if you have a MS in Anthropology then you should know better. True, they probably weren't built by aliens from Mars, but Alien intervention is possible. We couldn't create the pyramids with the technology we have today so how on Earth did the Egyptians create them so perfectly without computers, cranes, etc? Either we have lost a huge amount of technology or some more intelligent being was helping the Egyptians. There is no way they could have done it by themselves. I agree with your girlfriend. You *are* being irrational for not even thinking that her idea *could* be possible. We don't know for absolute sure that aliens didn't build the pyramids, so get off your high horse just because you have an MS in Anthropology. Btw pyramids are actually landing pads for alien spacecraft (Stargate ftw)

Really? We couldn't build the pyramids with the technology we have today? With all of the bizarre buildings we are able to build, you don't think we could pull off a simple geometric shape like a pyramid? Sure, it's *possible* that aliens did it. It's also *possible* that this whole world is a figment of your imagination, that you're dreaming this all up and when you wake up, we'll all vanish. I don't plan on living as if that possibility was a reality, though.

Yes we couldn't do it today!! Do you really think we'd be able to build a huge pyramid that sharpens objects placed in its centre? No, we can't. And the pyramids have perfect dimensions. They've been measured. Each side is perfect. We couldn't do that today. There would be too much error. Actually do some research before you bash me. I know a lot about the pyramids because I have a great interest in them because of how amazing they are.

"Yes we couldn't"? Your logic confounds me.

Meant to be a comma sorry: "Yes, we couldn't do it today."

Perfect? Perfect in what manner? They are roughly hewn, and the masonry is pitted and decomposed. They aren't perfect in that manner, so what? Are you saying that the sides and angles match? Clearly if the sides match in length, so will the angles and height-to-peak. If the angles match, so will the length of the sides. It's quite easy to measure length or angle, and this technology wasn't missing lacking in Egyptian times. Nor is the technology lacking to build the pyramids now. So yes, while alien intervention is "possible" -- after all, it's "possible" you're nothing more than a brain in a box being fed information from a computer -- it's not probable, and asserting that not only is it possible and probable, but most definitely certain requires a credulity most scientists cannot muster.

Yes, NOW they are "roughly hewn, and the masonry is pitted and decomposed" but you forget it's been HUNDREDS of years...nothing can stand up to the ware and tear of Egypt for that long. And how the hell did you know I'm a brain in a box? Are you stalking me?! Freak!!!

"Sharpens objects placed in its centre"? You... I... buh? Are we talking about the same pyramids, here? Big stone things in Giza, one of which is believed to be the tomb of fourth dynasty Egyptian king Khufu? Those are the pyramids we're talking about, right?

Also, if we have the technology to measure the pyramids and see that they have "perfect" dimensions, could we not use that same technology to check our own dimensions and ensure that they were "perfect," if we decided to build more pyramids?

The Cheops pyramid...in EGYPT (so yes we're talking about the same pyramids). It's said to sharpen objects if the object is placed correctly in its centre. Also, if you make an exact model of the Cheops pyramid (but on a smaller scale) that one will sharpen metal too. Google the pyramids to find all the amazing stuff about them! I agree with you totally #73

#78 - the scale models that you refer to, at least, have been tested. They showed an unfortunate lack of ability to preserve food or sharpen blades, in spite of claims to the contrary. You're right, google is indeed informative... it showed me websites with scientific research that disproved the sharpening theory.

No, the only reason that that we can't build pyramids today is because if any one country enslaves tens maybe hundreds of thousands of people to spend their entire life just building one building then other countries around the world get pissed off. Also I think any city is 1000 times more impressive then the pyramids. O look you piled up some rocks, well we created infrastructure that can let millions of people live in a small space, all having a standard of living higher than any person had ever. That's impressive, and it wasn't built by aliens.

HAHAA omg I just laughed so hard. You are kidding, right #78? If not... please don't ever have offspring. Or please tell me you're like, in middle school or something. PYRAMIDS DO NOT HAVE ANY MAGICAL POWERS. THEY WERE NOT BUILT BY ALIENS. WE ARE PERFECTLY CAPABLE OF CONSTRUCTING SIMILAR STRUCTURES WITH COMPARABLE TECHNOLOGY TODAY IF PROVIDED WITH ENOUGH MAN POWER. Seriously, everyone on here in support of this alien thing had better be ******* joking or not yet in college. Otherwise I have such huge and serious fears for the fate of our planet if there are such total retarded cretins walking around.

... yes we could build them today. The thing holding us back is money, not technology btw - i havnt majored in anything. I just have a gift called *common sense*

#78 guy it scares me that ppl like you actually is alive... its like, u're soo desperate to be uniqe that u deny common sense and proven science just to be different.. perhaps somethings its good to be open-minded about, but simple facts like that should pretty much just be accepted. Another thing to all you "aliens built it" retards.. Do you think humans are dumb and uncapable of good construction and ingeenering? (If so, watch Discoverys constructions shows more often). Do you think the human brain has actually grown the last thousands years, and that all humans in the ancient times were stupider than us? Cause if u think so, u've would been amazed about the true geniousity of old historical architecture. and really... If you had all the resources u needed, a lifetime and possibly even longer time to build it, and pretty much ALL the manpower u needed, aswell as the best engineers and architects in the known world, would u still think it was impossible without help from some aliens with a ? who knows... perhaps the tards of 3009 will believe the statue of liberty or the eifel tower was 'zapped' in from aliens. or maybe todays tards already do O.o

PS type in "Nassim Haramein pyramids" in youtube. He's a scientist. Good luck on your journey.

O he's a scientist? Well that makes anything he says unquestionably right ESPECIALLY if tonnes of other SCIENTISTS disagree with him.

Well, YDI for having a stupid girlfriend, to be honest.

I didn't even know that was a theory until I heard my dad's uncle speak about it 2 weeks ago. My face went from :) to :| to :(((. Some people...

"she thinks I am being an irrational idiot for telling her she is wrong." YDI, even though you claim to be well-educated, you can't understand the simple fact that women prefer you agree with them and will probably resort to name calling if you don't. For all your knowledge, you have no wisdom. I guess FYL though for being so blind to the truth.

Sweet irony that she's dumb enough to believe that but OP isn't smart enough to take advantage of it.

****, ****, ****.... the bitch is a crazy Goa'uld! RUN, DUDE!

lol, so totally FTW.. Stargate rocks!!!

*LMAO* But Ra, who ordered the construction of the pyramides, didn't come from Mars. If she actually were a Goa'Uld, she would know that. So she is probably a Shol'va!

My girlfriend (who's account I'm posting on right now) knows that you get me worked up (I'm a hardcore skeptic) she just has to bust out 9/11-truth, water fluoridation, or any of the other Alex Jones talking points that she learned (to her great annoyance) from her previous boyfriend. I know she is just joking. I know she is just trying to get me worked up (and succeeding -- she can troll the **** out of me IRL, and know it will work even though I know what she's doing). If she ever did or said anything so patently ridiculous in a bald-faced, deliberate manner, I would have to dump her.
