You think they’re done? Oh no.

Thinks The Bible was real
I’m not anything that can be remotely considered religious, but flood myths are fairly common in ancient folklore, so if anything from the Bible might have been true, then there might have been a great flood at some point.
There was. The Tigris and Euphrates flooded several times. Noah’s Ark is a retelling of an older Sumerian myth.
there definitely wasn’t some earth-covering flood, since that would take a stupendous amount of water that later just vanished.
What is likely however is raised sea levels, drowning low-lying areas like the dogger bank. It’s pretty insane how much more land we used to have, doggerland is/was about the size of the netherlands and since it would have been extremely fertile it’s likely it was a very important area for people in the past, so frankly it could very well be the source for the atlantis myth even.
Atlantis was a hypothetical society thought up for an argument that everyone immediately took way too seriously.
There are lots of flood myths because humans generally settle near large bodies of water. Large bodies of water tend to flood, sometimes catastrophically.
The Atlantis “myth” was made up by Plato to make a point about what would happen to Athens if they got too big for their britches.
Civilizations that arose around rivers that flooded annually had gods that were largely unconcerned with human matters.
Civilizations that arose around rivers that flooded randomly had angry gods who wanted to punish people.
If the tips of those pyramids were above water during Noah’s flood, wouldn’t that mean there was still a ton of land left?
There are higher hills in Egypt, let alone mountain ranges.
Not only are there higher hills, the Pyramid of Djedefre, which is now mostly gone, was put on a plateau overlooking the Giza pyramids specifically so Djedfre, who was the sun of Khufu, who built the great pyramid, could say that his was higher than his father’s.
Noah was before Moses so I don’t the pyramids were built before the flood.
The Bible doesn’t actually say that the Israelites built the pyramids, but the entire Egyptian pharaonic line would have post-dated Noah, so it still doesn’t make chronological sense within the Biblical narrative.
I used to work with someone who believed the pyramids are fake, also I have seen a photo of the same person visiting the pyramids on holiday when they were younger. There was no changing their minds either, so weird.
edit: if you’ve never seen it…
We actually went over this whole thing when I was in design school. Later, I interviewed with a company that had some e who used to be on the Pepsi marketing team in the room that was responsible for green-lighting this.
It was an interesting conversation.
So this thing isn’t parody?
Nope. When Pepsi redesigned its logo in 2015 or whatever, the designer put together this huge style guide book that was full of this crap about the logo. It was ridiculous.
Pages and pages of it

wtf am I supposed to get from this? That somecunt thinks the pyramids made it through the floods of middle & near east folklore? Vapid shit, really.
The sea peoples did not merely sail the waves, they rode them
Are you okay, colleague? You’ve barely touched your cab ride…
If it was water, wouldn’t everything be smooth?
