This is really a set up to make any Christian belief kooky. If Carson’s statement about Joseph storing grain in a pyramid can generate this much ridicule, just think how the MSM is going to treat Ted Cruz when he is asked about stuff like Creationism, evolution, the flood, the exodus, Adam and Eve, the virgin birth, the resurrection....

Carsons theory about the use of pyramids or the idea that Joseph was instrumental in building the first pyramid has been around for a long time.

I see a lot of Freepers joining in the “Carson is a Lunatic” chorus, but the MSM thinks all of us here are lunatics, especially anyone who takes their Christian faith seriously or literally.

Not enough time to build those Pyramids in the 7 good years. That doesn’t mean a granary wasn’t shaped in pyramid form with thin walls like a normal granary. Grain bins are still round with a low sloped pointed roof. But the great pyramid has over 2 million stones it. It weighing from 1 to 50 tons.

I feel like I’m back in school. I’ve likely read more about the pyramids in the past day than I have in the past 5 decades.

Dr. Carson’s views don’t mean a Tinker’s Dam to me.

“...or the idea that Joseph was instrumental...”

Of course a lot of people (”experts”) find it difficult to believe that someone like Joseph would have any power to begin with to be crazy. Much less to be put in charge of EVERYTHING!
