Oy vey.

Ummm how do they KNOW this?

Sorry strongly held opinions are not facts. Supposed Scholars should know better then to state their opinions as facts.

[theFIRMbss]

But Moses did write
the first Linux kernel, right?
(And then Aaron wrote

the software drivers
for the alien hardware
to part the Red Sea . . .)

[Cicero]

Well, let's put it this way. Egyptians supervised the work and wielded the whips. That was back in the day when Egypt was civilized--to a degree.

[mountainlyons]

I read that Al Gore did it.

[alice_in_bubbaland]

Geesh...I thought that the Egyptians built the pyramids with "Israelite Slave Labor". I guess my textbooks were wrong too. s/

[Oztrich Boy]

Ummm how do they KNOW this?

The pyramids were bulit 2750-2500 BC

At that time Jacob/Israel's sperm wasn't even a gleam in Isaac's father's eye

[killjoy]

I read that Al Gore did it.

No, he just took the initiative in creating the pyramids...

[festus]

No no no. Al Gore bought the productivity offsets so he didn't have to build them. But Kerry had a plan for building them. A better plan. A smarter plan.

[Pete from Shawnee Mission]

You might add that the pyramids were not built with mud bricks that contained straw.

"And the people complained against Moses: "And now Pharoh makes us collect our own straw for the making of bricks.."

Or so it was written..

So algore's been out on his carbon footprint, and paid himself big bucks, under his own company and now he's unable to part the sea? After all the crisis algore has brought to our attention, I would have thought algore would have fingured out how to talk to Moses and then God would have come down and given to algore the knowledge to know all things and algroe would have sacrificed himself up as humanities' answer.....

oops...excuse me al's already done that! I understand....
and algore thinks people not believing as al believes
are crazy?
someone should ask al, if he's certain the sun doesn't play a role in the life of man, and that maybe al, the sun is a more powerful thing than all of humanity? The universe is so vast, how can humans be much of a factor in a planet's millions of years, al? al....look up guy, some of humanity are not the problem, but some of humanity who act and believe as you do....ARE! Stop with the craziness al, you are scaring the children.

opps...that's what you meant to do....
okay, how much is this going to cost me al?
you keep talking about those carbon offsets?
what are the real dollars and cents you think we should pay out and what's the plan? oh, yes al, I'm skeerd, I simply have to know more about how much in dollars and cents I'm expected to pay for your expert analysis and solution.

Wouldn't you know it....al wants to send us a bill later...

The Great Pyramids, that is. They were still making lesser pyramids for another 1000 years.

There weren't enough slaves available to be considered the primary labor source for the pyramids, but they were probably in the mix.

[ASA Vet]

According to Akhlah: The Jewish Children's learning network the Egyptian enslavement began in 1429 BCE.

Roughly a thousand or so years after the pyramids were built.

[philman_36]

Such an easy thing to verify...
Exodus 1:11 Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses.

I don't see anything about any pyramids.

All is forgiven. Go and sin no more.

[shield]

The architect of the great pyramid was Hebrew...all one has to do is to look at the mathematics of the structure...given to the architect [I believe if I remember correctly he's the father of Geometry] by Our Heavenly Father...

[tkathy]

The only certainty is that muslims, who contribute nothing wherever they go, didn't build the pyramids.

[William Terrell]

Why do you used "BCE" instead of "BC"?
