I thought you were going shopping...

[SunkenCiv]

Uh, uh, uh, I had to stay home and wait for a call? Yeah, a call, that was it... ;')

"Uh, uh, uh, I had to stay home and wait for a call? Yeah, a call, that was it... ;')"

It's nap time here. ZZZZZZ

[SunkenCiv]

I have no more excuses, either, since the call arrived just before I posted that. :') But a nap does sound good...

[FairOpinion]

Sorry, today, when everyone has cell phones, waiting for a call is not a good enough excuse.

Just admit it, you are addicted to GGG. ;)

I knew, I was doing the right thing, to ask you to take over the ping list.

You get an outstanding GGG performance star. :)

Jewish tradition places the death of Joseph at 1452 BCE.

"You get an outstanding GGG performance star. :)"

I agree.

I didn't realize that this is the thread where GGG was born. Thanks, Ernest.

Oklahoma dirt-farmers know what happened to the Egyptians because "Sh-t happens".

The pyramids were not made by men but by Gods who used the pyramids for sporting purposes.

Please see Alien vs Predator for further details.

I believe God made man with a deep need to worship God. The worship of the pharaohs was not what God intended but to a certain extent it gave meaning (although false) to the population on the whole. When a nation believes alike this serves as a bond or a glue to keep people unified. They are all focused on their higher power/s rather than on all their separate ways. It can benefit the population on a whole by having a civilizing effect. It is always unfortunate when man turns to worshiping any but the True and Living God to fulfill that deep need within.

Oh well, better late than never LOL!

[GOPJ]

This fits. It's always seemed odd that large ancient urban centers would grow up in areas without water...

[blam]

"Oh well, better late than never LOL!"

Never too late. There is much to learn.

The Lost Tribes link you posted is an interesting and thought provoking one. But in my mind the sudden appearance of MILLIONS of Celts in history at the same place and same time the Isrealites go "over the hill" commands attention. The other isolated little splinter groups that claim to be from the Lost Tribes are miniscule in size compared to the Celts, and don't seem to match up in other ways.

CHOKE

Am i reading it right? You are saying that the Assyrians moved millions of hebrews in record time, over multiple continents and at least one ocean, to Ireland where they spontaneously mutated into red haired green eyed pale faced people with totally different art and language without any recollection of their past including the name of their own culture?

AMAZING
