Nobody alive today knows for certain how the pyramid was erected, how long it took to build, or how its near perfect alignments were achieved. It
is aligned with the earth's four cardinal points, and at the exact center of the geometrical quadrant formed by the Nile Delta. It is located at
the exact center of the earth's land surface. The geographical center of the whole land mass including the Americas, and Antarctica.

The bolded portion is simply a lie. This is why I reccomended you do your own research. I'd not visit the linked sit again, were I you.

This one I will give to you.
Doing some reading it seems you are correct.
Thank you. Funny how an erroneous idea can take hold, isn't it?
Like the G.P. being at the "exact center of the Earth's land surface."

Just because I provide a link to some information, does not mean that I agree with everything the writer has to say.
Point taken, and glad to hear it. Don't forget, it was
you that admonished us to "read the materials"
you provided, though.
Originally posted by foremanatorI would say the Author is speculating, like we all do.
I think he is entitled to his opinion doesn't mean I agree with all he has to say.
I wont even ridicule him for expressing his beliefs.
That author is not simply expressing his beliefs. He is pretending to have discovered something that nobody else knew, and using pseudoscience to do
it.
If he'd simply said "let's speculate" this or that, I'd have no problem with it.

I respect your opinion, you are well informed and you bring up some good points.
Its just I find the "brainier" people are, the less tact they posses.
I am more interested in valid information than being misled.
Thankls, and I agree. Being misled is the reason I'm here. I was misled by VonDaniken. Eventually I educated myself enough on the subject to
realize I'd been lied to and ripped off. Just trying to save others the trouble of the same sort of thing.
I believe if you use the search function, you might find out why I'm so cantankerous. I've only stated the same facts about the pyramid (and other
things) at least twenty times here at ATS, and many others have given up and left the site because of theitr frustration over the same thing. Most of
them repeated facts over and over proabably 50 times longer than I have.
You last two posts, by the way, were also filled with misleading mischaracterizations (nicer way to put it.)
Don't go to Geocities to find out about Egypt. You're wasting your and my time and everyone elses'. There's plenty of good archaeology sites out
there to find what you want.
