Hello Anthony,

You write, 'I know what I know because I have taken the time and effort to study the culture of ancient Egypt.'

Firstly, I think the time is long overdue when you should drop this constant and far from subtle implying of yours that if somebody's theory or hypothesis differs to your own or one that you think is correct, then it is because they haven't studied the subject matter to the depths you have, and or haven't understood what they have studied, or both.
It is demeaning and IMO you should refrain from doing it.
Instead of high-mindedly dismissing - usually with rhetoric - views, opinions, hypotheses and theories you disagree with, why not try and post referenced data that supports your position?
I thought the idea of these Forums is for people to share knowledge and exchange ideas, etc., not to act as a stage for somebody to strut around on whilst proclaiming that their views on AE cultures are logical and correct and everybody else's are illogical and wrong.

Secondly, how do you know that your knowledge is correct?
Do you think it is correct because it is in agreement with the opinion of a recognised expert and/or the consensus of the majority of such experts, etc?
Or do you think that your knowledge and understanding is superior to most other folk around here?


Thirdly, did your study of the cultures of ancient Egypt include an exhaustive study of the layout and dimensions of Khufu's pyramid?
If not, why not?
