Egyptians believed to separate from the body at death.

The huge Egyptian pyramids? These are luxuriously furnished tombs for dead Egyptian royalty. The Great Pyramid near Cairo is 146.59 meters (481 feet) high. Each side measures 230.35 meters (756 feet) long.
Made up of more than two million stones weighing up to two and a half tons each, in area this massive structure covers 54,000 square meters (about 13 acres), enough to hold ten football fields. Attached to the pyramids were temples to promote worship of the dead Pharaohs.And yet they say man did not have intelligence then.

who does?

[jackthehat]

Who are these people saying that man had no intelligence?

[jomifl]

What? it is obvious that there are always some men who lack intelligence, not all of them Egyptians.

[bibblebub]

yes, who says that???

> And yet they say man did not have intelligence then.

Well, that hadn't invented Cola, fries, or hamburgers then. They can't have been that smart.

[Old_Geezer]

Intelligence doesn't change that much over history. Although good nutrition and living conditions help. It is knowledge that increases. That is why they worshiped deities such as Ra, Nut, Osiris and the rest. Whilst today we have the knowledge to understand how unnecessary that is.

Sandy, they did eat lotus flowers, not so far removed from coke.

//And yet they say man did not have intelligence then. //

Who says that?

[Frank97]

I thought I read somewhere that mankind has had the same brain power for a least the last 40,000 years.

[sandyRoe]

I'm thinking Cola and coke are two very different things.

[Davethedog]

HaHaHa - Yes of course The stupid egyptians - the gormless greeks - Oh and what did the romans ever do for us.

[Old_Geezer]

Snort cola and the bubbles get up your nose.

[jomifl]

I expect that there is something in the bible that says that the Egyptians weren't intelligent. Where else would Elderman get information from?

The bible, in relation to the Egyptians, is clearly Zionist propaganda.

[jomifl]

Dont be daft Sandy the bible pre-dates Zionism by about 2000 years.
