I assume

that when dealing with such complexities over large time distances and large dimensions

and a range of very human conjectures involved with such . . .

there will be LOTS of things that are wrong and sometimes, some things that are right.

Are you saying that you really do not think there’s anything to do with Orien in terms of such ancient monument complexes and their configurations more or less exactly as the stars in Orien’s system?

The assumption you make in your final paragraph is correct. Rather than surrendering to belief in wild and unsupported assertions, please research the facts — really, why should I do your research for you? — which prove the falsity the claims made about the significance to Orion’s Belt in the original construction alignment of the pyramids. By way of one example, the claim that the three stars of Orion’s Belt align with, and correspond to, the alignment and positioning of three of the pyramids is untrue — the so-called alignment is 180 degrees out of phase, and when the image is ‘flipped’ to be in phase, the positions of those three stars and the three relevant pyramids do not, in fact, align. The other claims anent Giza and Orion have been similarly shown to be, simply, untrue. Once you’ve reviewed the evidence (facts, mind, not assertions by believers who themselves have not ascertained the facts), and discovered that the so-called Orion orientation at Giza is a myth, let’s re-open the discussion.

BTW, I once ‘believed’ the Giza/Orion connection, in the sense that I read about it when it was first bruited about 15 years ago, thought it an interesting factoid, and thought no more about it, content to accept what appeared to be factual. However, in casual conversation with a friend about the topic, it became apparent that there were anomalies and inconsistencies. Curious, I researched the sources of the claims, and the ‘data’ on which they were claimed to have been based, and discovered, with little necessary digging, that it was a steaming pile of internet-fueled excreta. That ‘timtouse’ site is a prime example of the sorts of sites, all too prevalent, that publish many, many false assertions with no attempt to check if they are, in fact, true. For many people, there seems to be too much trust, too little verify.
