The book of Otem is your weakness
Has your mental health issues started again? It seems so.

And about Otem's book: Yes, the author explained how Atum taught the ancient Egyptians the complex mathematics (among the many mysteries he taught them) used to build the pyramids.

According to the book, Atum is the creator of ancient Egypt as he molded the first hominids and humans (giants) in the country.

Tem is another name of Atum.

If you've issues with Otem or his book, direct your problems to the right sources and stop quoting me unnecessarily.

The documentary i saw(animated), it shows how they dropped a huge stone block weighing around 10tons at the entrance of one of the burial chambers inside the Pyramid to stop grave robbers/raiders or generation to come from disturbing the sleep of the kings.

In their minds then, nothing can remove that 10tons stone block from that entrance, not even thousands of men. It was designed in such a way that the stone block will be dropped down into a sloppy passage to block the chamber. So pulling out will be impossible.

Thousands of years later, men designed machines/cranes that can lift materials/objects weighing up to 20,000tons.


How far drop link to this documentary nah

Not larger (in all cases), but large.

Stonehenge, the pyramids of South America, those huge carved totems (Maui or so), the statues at Angkor wat (I think); those are all huge things, but who put them there and how did they do it? Some don't compare to the size of pyramids, but for humans of the age they were built, they are rather advanced.

The biggest mystery is that we can tell how we built the Burj, we have the technological developments that lead up to it, but how did these ones do it.


Just read the Stonehenge is around 4,000 years old and each standing stone weighs like 20 tons each.

I wonder where the slaves came from, in the India text (The Vedas) or another account, if I recall correctly from a documentary, they had help from the half-monkey half-human people.

If the ones that came from the sky had knowledge of mingling DNA and making hybrids, perhaps, they did make this species, for heavy work, or they had advanced gravity tech, that can levitate objects, using resonance and frequencies.

you see that is the beauty of keeping open mind. I read and watch conspiracy theorist put forward claim that the watchers or annunakis are aliens but as sweet as those theory theory sounds, there is no single archeological finding to support such. Imagine a super race living on earth for thousands of years and yet they did not lost a single item which is discovered to be ancient and more advanced for today's man

It doesn't even baffle me one bit.

If you don't know, the civil engineering in ancient Greek and Rome is the basis for civil engineering till this present moment.

The ancient Greek and Rome were so civilized that they gave us many of the things we have today, including democracy.

If not for war and lack of proper record keeping, humans would have been 100 times more civilized than we are.

Expand your knowledge. Both ancient Greek and Romans were students of the ancient Egyptians. At the peak of ancient Egypt glory, the Greek or Roman's were mere savages. I am not making this up. Below is the account of two Europeans, including the individual that deciphered the hieroglyphics...

Here is the account of Count Constatin de Volney (1757-1820), an European that visited Egypt in 1783 and 1785. "...all have a bloated face, puffed up eyes, flat nose, thick lips; in a word, the true face of the mulato. I was tempted to attribute it to climate, but when I visited the Sphinx, its appearance gave the key to the riddle. On seeing that head, typically Negro in all its features, I remembered the remarkable passage where Herodotus says:' As for me, I judge the Colchians to be a colony of Egyptians because, like them, they are black with wooly hair.... '. In other words, ancient Egyptians were true Negroes of the same type as all native-born Africans. That being so, we can see how their blood, mixed for several centuries with that of the Romans and Greeks, must have lost the intensity of its original colour, while retaining nonetheless the imprint of its original mold."
So, the above explain the presence of a slightly paler skin ancient Egyptian. These are Copts, descendants of the Egyptians and the Greeks.
And below are description of races of men known to ancient Egyptians, in a letter written by Chanpollin the Younger, who deciphered hieroglyphics in 1822, to his brother, Champollion-Figeac: "Right in the valley of Biban-el-Moluk, we admired ...... the astonishing freshness of the paintings and fine sculptures on several tombs. I had a copy of people presented on the bas-reliefs. At first I had thought, from copies .... printed in England, that these peoples of different races led by the god Horus holding his shepherd's staff, were indeed nations subject to the rule of the Pharaohs. A study of the legends informed me that this tableu has a more general meaning. It portrayed a third hour of the day ..... Thus we have before our eyes races of man known to the Egyptians and we learn at the same time the great geographical or ethnographical divisions established during that early epoch. Men led by Horus, the shepherd if the peoples, belong to four distinct families. The first, the one closest to the god, has a dark red colour, a well proportioned body, kind face, nose slightly aquiline, long braided hair, and is dressed in white. The legends designate this species as Rot-en-ne-Rome, the race of men par excellence, i.e., the Egyptians. There can be no uncertainty about the racial identity of the man who come next: he belongs to the Black race, designated under the general term Nahasi. The third present a very different aspect; his skin colour borders on yellow or tan; he has a strongly aquiline nose, thick black pointed beard, and wears a short garment of varied colors; these are called Namou. Finally, the last one is what we call flesh-colored, a white skin of the most delicate shade, a nose straight or slightly arched, blue eyes, blond or reddish beard, tall stature and very slender, clad in a hairy ox-skin, a veritable savage tattooed on various parts of his body; he is called Tamhou ..... The variations I observed fully convinced me that they had tried to represent here inhabitants of four corners of the earth, according to the Egyptian system, namely: 1. the inhabitants of Egypt ... 2. the inhabitants of Africa proper, Blacks. 3. Asians; finally (and I am ashamed to say so, since our race is the last and most savage in the series), Europeans who, in those remote epochs, frankly did not cut too fine a figure in the world. In this category, we must include a blonds and white-skinned people living not only in Europe but Asia as well, their starting point. This manner of viewing the tableau is all the more accurate because, on the other tombs, the same generic names reappear, always in the same order. We find Egyptians and Africans represented in the same way..... but the Namou (Asians) the Tanhou (Europeans) present significant and curious variants. Instead of Arab or the Jew, dressed simply and represented on one tomb, Asia's representatives on other tombs (those of Ramses II, etc) are three individuals, tanned complexion, aquiline nose, black eyes, and thick beard, but clad in rare splendor. In one, they are evidently Assyrians ... In the other, are Medes or early inhabitants of some parts of Persia... Thus, Asia was represented indiscriminately by any one of the peoples who inhabited it. The same is true of our good old ancestors, the Tamhou. Their attire is sometimes different; their heads are more or less hairy and adorned with various ornaments; their savage dress varies somewhat in form, but their white complexion, their eyes and beard all preserve the character of a race apart."
Above are two accounts of 16th and 17th century European historians visitors to Egypt. One of them, the individual that deciphered the hieroglyphics.

There are no archeological records of giants in ancient Egypt. All skeletons or mummies discovered were that of normal humans. But I am not saying that probably in the distant past before then, there were no giants roaming on earth. The earth is more than 3 billion years old. If massive pre-historic plants or animals like mammoth and dinosaurs existed in the past, it's also likely that giant humans or some giant beings close to humans also existed in pre-historic period.

Even without that, these guys were much more modified compared to current humans in all aspects. Not Conclusive enough, but we can't use nowadays to simply bin possibilities of those days.

To extend the light of consciousness through out the universe, we must build spaceship and master good use of nuclear power and master biology as well as genetics.

We use both Evolution and Genetics. Cos you wanna use mRNA as well as DNA to design beings but you want them to evolve on their own while you move to other spectrum and other planets if owning many planets is in your play book.

You fly into habitable zones and terraform the planet and begin to seed the life forms and you wanna seed humanoid forms to do heavy lifting and take care of gardening and food production. The animals and plants grown as food until civilization gets to point they do not eat animals and focus on plants.

The Bible is just a compilation of a few of the many history books and stories mixed with mind control by bad human beings. So use the knowledge of science and you will see through the ignorance of Ezekiel and the other interpreters who kept calling Astranauts Gods and even worship helicopters.

Bro, we are witnessing an information age, next few years there will be disclosures. NASA has hired 24 Priests to brief them on how religious people will feel when they are told the reality of the universe and their gods.

We are in a technologically designed planet, nothing else matters. Religions seem as mind control to me.

A space jet can go as far as planet Mars. So they are telling us the building reached the moon, the sun and beyond. Cuz I don’t know where heaven is located?

The heavens according to the bible could be anywhere in the universe, I don't know. also there are lots of galaxies in the universe, many so dense light can't escape which makes it impossible for Scientist to explore.

Sure, it's not a big deal. This is a pot of ideas.

They had a plentiful supply of slaves? Were there more people in the world then than now? And all of them were of working age? Ready for the taking?

Forget about Egypt as your world power. Huge edifices were raised all over the world, so if Egypt got all the slaves, how did they get theirs done across the oceans?

Please, replicate the pulley systems they used and build us a pyramid. Now we have machines that can be used to simulate the efforts of slaves. Let's see how it was done. It's been decades of wonder and the people who told us it was slaves cannot replicate it to prove it scientifically. Why? What good are these physical claims without evidence?



At that point in time, the pyramid was actually the only great edifice that was being erected, Egypt was like the capital of the world, they controlled every land on the map as of then, they had all it takes., All the resources, u don't need a population as large as today to achieve that, millions of slaves supplied every year can actually pull that off within 20 years..Ur argument is actually baseless cuz their's no way u will ask someone to rebuild such a thing, manually just to prove to u it's possible in this era where we have machines that can make building such structure possible in less than 5 years, where will u get the human resources today?
