[QUOTE="TheOLdGuy, post: 94631, member: 878"]No, not said in jest. They didn't use that word when the Bible was written. Who's that other author also with a von, I think? Very popular in the 50s. (I'll remember his name as soon as I hit Post.) He made me think about it and subsequently not quite accept that those stones [B][U]weren't[/U][/B] dragged (exaggerating as usual) a few thousand miles before being lifted a hundred feet or so before crowning the top. They had help. And who was first? Mayans? Who told the Egyptians what the Mayans did? Or vice-versa. It was still pretty far apart before So. America virtually parted company with Africa. Somewhere about 65 years ago I suddenly ingested the vertigo bug. Prior I could go a hundred feet up on a pole and have no problem. After that, UH! UH! NO WAY! But no problem at all climbing Mayan's version of a pyramid. Got to the top and looked back down. THE STEPS WERE GONE. IT WAS SUDDENLY ONE SMOOTH SLIDE ALL THE WAY. Took me 5 times as long and a pair of Levi's to reach Mother Earth.[/QUOTE]
