“I am not a big Carson fan, however what he did was refute the idea that Aliens were responsible for the pyramids”

—He refuted the Aliens saying that some believe that while HIS belief is that Joseph built pyramids to store grain then stated today that was still his belief. So you’re whistling past the graveyard with that comment. NO where in the Bible does it say Joseph built pyramids and the Bible covered his life story fairly well

"The first pyramid to be built was the Stepped Pyramid of Djoser (Netjerikhet) which is part of a complex in Saqqara Egypt that appears to be a grain storage and distribution center. The Step Pyramid itself was built on top of a shaft that was originally used as a grain silo but then converted into a tomb for the Pharaoh. The Step Pyramid is really a series of Mastabas, made from solid limestone blocks, stacked up on top of one another. The Step Pyramid was used to bury Netjerikhet’s 3 wives and 11 daughters and Netjerikhet’s sarcophagus was placed on a platform in the shaft beneath the Stepped Pyramid. The Step Pyramid was designed by Imhotep who may well be the Joseph of the Bible. Joseph and Imhotep have many similarities but have not been thought to be one in the same person because of discrepancies between the estimated dates of their existence."

Saw a very interesting program several months ago from a investigative journalist who posited that many decades ago a mistake was made in the timelines of the Egyptian archeology. He said and illustrated exactly how this happened and that since this early mistake has been used for so long in the explanation and writing of history that they have essentially molded recent historical books around the mistake. He shows quite clearly that there were some assumptions made in Biblical story and in the historical timeline that if corrected, caused the Biblical and the archeological history to match up exactly.

Unfortunately I don't recall off hand the name of the program but IIRC I saw it on Netflix.
