Pi is calculatable from the height and circumference of the GP but not from any other building or pyramid I believe it is unique. ONce again I never said it was built only for that purpose. Stick to what I say and not your own fantasies.

Eygpt seems to have had a way of making sure the bodies did not disappear even after 1000s of yrs. None were ever found in the GP now were they?

Again you're making me stab in the dark because you have yet to explain how one calculates pi from the pyramid. From my memory of geometry you can stick a circle in/ around any regularly shaped object and once you have a circle you can calculate pi.

Yer funny, most cultures have ways of preserving bodies, and when the culture doesn't handle it nature has a habit of doing it anyway. Of course many of the tombs in Egypt (and the rest of the world for that matter) have been raided and while we know there WERE bodies in them we haven't found any. We still haven't come anywhere near exploring the whole pyramid so it's a bit quick to be claiming that there were never any bodies in there. And again I point you to the Tomb of the Unkown Viet Nam Soldier which has no body in it (they identified the soldier, exhumed him and moved him to his family plot, President Reagan chose to leave the tomb empty as a symbol of our desire to never need another of tomb to commemorate the unidentified victims of war), does that mean it was never a tomb? No of course not.

Again this would be a hell of a lot easier if you'd actually put forth what your position is. You claim it was never a tomb, but other than that you don't agree with Wizard on what it was, you pointed me to some dead astronomer and when I post what HE thought you say that's not it. Just what in blazes is your position? Who built the thing, why and how? Or are you just here to be a twit and disagree with everybody?
