Brian, I knew there was a reason I found your outlandish theories regarding the exodus to be full of ignorant weegie crap! Maybe Ron Wyatt is right after all.

jar writes: You, Dr. Scott and your theory of the Pyramid are simply jokes. Have any of you actually watched Dr. Gene Scott? My friends and I used to watch him way back in the eighties. This guy is absolutely classic. You can find some interesting anecdotes about him here: My favorite one is this:
quote:
Once he excommunicated his entire church on camera because it wasn’t giving him enough money. When he was being investigated by, among others, the State Attorney General’s office, he would assemble his monkey band, a collection of wind-up toy monkeys on stage. Then he would take a baseball bat and smash them. He would end this performance by sitting back and laughing uproariously.
Sounds like a much more credible source regarding the pyramids than those whacky, biased, no-nothing egyptologists.

It's easy to see Dr. Scott's appeal:
quote:
"People started walking away feeling they had been in the presence of a Renaissance man," extols David R. Igler, a hospital vice president. "It was kind of like being with a Leonardo da Vinci. I don't think I've ever had an encounter or experience like that in my life."

Aha ha ha ha ha. I just have to point this out, it's so far down on Abshaloms link, that I fear people might miss out:
quote:
"I saw a stairway begin to roll down from heaven and come right down to the side of my bed," Inez Leona Graves Scott recalled in a 1980 interview. "Two angels walked down and they stopped in front of Gene. I said, 'Oh no, Lord, you can't take Gene!' and they just went around him and picked the baby up." The infant died but Gene was spared. From then on, his parents knew their surviving child was special. Shortly thereafter, the family moved to the Northern California town of Gridley when W.T. Scott agreed to head an Assemblies of God church. He succeeded a pastor who crucified himself on a tree trying to imitate the marks of Christ. "At that time, the people like my dad were the cults, the kooks and the nuts," Scott once told an interviewer.
Yeah, good thing they came around to see the truth. This message has been edited by custard, 06-17-2004 06:00 PM

Re: Center of Land Mass?
willowtree writes: Edit: Could this be why the Middle East is called the Middle East ? No it could not. This is because Europe was considered the West, and China/SE Asia was considered the Far East. The accepted dividing line between West (Europe) and East (the Orient) was around Serbia. Hence the Balkans and Turkey were the Near East, Arab countries the Middle East, and China/SE Asia the Far East. Example from wikipedia.com:
quote:
The description Middle has also led to some confusion over changing definitions. Before the First World War, Near East was used in Britain to refer to the Balkans and the Ottoman Empire, while Middle East referred to Persia, Afghanistan and sometimes Central Asia, Turkestan and the Caucasus. (Far East referred to countries such as Malaysia and Singapore.) With the disappearance of the Ottoman Empire in 1918, Near East largely fell out of common use, while Middle East came to be applied to the re-emerging countries of the Arab world.

A Ph.D. from Stanford burns unquenchable anger in you, Yeah that doctorate in Philosophy of Education is pretty intimidating.

Nice link. I thought this Dr. Gene Scott quote was relevant and on topic:
quote:
The problem is that some people go overboard and read more into the Pyramid than the Pyramid allows.
Huh. Whaddya know?
