I wanna kick Egyptologist az.

[cladking]

I'm always flabbergasted by Egyptologists who are so smart that they don't need to look up the traits of animals and plants mentioned in the ancient literature. These were so important to them that their so called 'gods" were part human part animal but Egytologists don't feel the need to understand the traits of the animals. The texts will say a stone flew like the "fledgling of a swallow" and they think I'm nuts for looking up how a swallow fledgling flies. Well... ...it flies low to the ground and looks like it's being pulled through the air;

But it's the same thing with many other words. They won't look up things they aren't familiar with and some of the translators use words that don't even exist in English. God only knows what they're talking about but Egyptologists don't even notice.

You really can't get a good feel for the translation unless you also have a feel for the translator. But I suppose if you believe it's all just religious gobblety gook as Egyptologists do then it doesn't really matter what they said merely what you think they meant.

In a nutshell they went wrong because of very poor reading comprehension skills. If even one of them had ever considered the possibility that the text was meant literally this would have been discovered 150 years ago when it was first translated.

So instead we have lived in ignorance of our past because they don't understand English.

Hey, at least I know I'm stupid. What's their excuse?
