I am an Egyptology student and have a friend who is convinced this accounts for the Egyptians rapid rate of civilization and high level of the sciences.Also that it accounts for everything from the creation myth to Sodom and Gomorrah, and beyond.

Ancient Egypt was a very isolated civilization. While most every other civilization was out in the open and trying to kill each other off, Egypt was surrounded on three sides by desert and the fourth by the meditteranean sea. They had plenty of time to develop their culture and concentrated on architecture, astonomy, mathematics, medicine, the arts and many other areas that did not include beating the crap out of other nations.
And to the person who said they were primitive - these 'primitive' people were performing successful brain surgeries, building lasting structures based on the ratio of Pi, that we still haven't figured out how they built, writing beautiful literature and creating a culture that lasted longer than any other culture has lasted so far.
Primitive? Ha! Highly intelligent and very focused. They were a phenominal people in that they understood who they were. They never had to go 'find' themselves. A child grew up knowing what their life would be like, learning their trade from an early age so they could be the best at it that they could possibly be. Their priorities were firmly established. Family, their Gods and their Country. Loyalty. Commitment. Faith.
Aliens? No, I doubt it. Just a nation of people who understood what it meant to work together for the benefit of all. Something we all could learn a lot more of.

Atlantis was supposedly an even more advanced civilization. I
believe there are aliens because there have been far to many sitings many times by large groups of people. Many have been reported by pilots, policemen etc.. Another reason Egypt may have been so far advanced is that it was the center of the ancient world, so I imagine that they would have access to the knowledge of all of the other known cultures.

The truth is they are still trying to piece together how in the world a society as primitive as they were in those days were able to do some of the engineering feats.
They are still trying to figure out how come they knew as much as they had to know to do a lot of things back then. There isn't a scrap of evidence to help either. They have a lot of theories and suppositions, but nothing to pin down how they knew what they knew.
I wouldn't be surprised to learn that they had "help" from somebody.

:) no iam they dont
the ancient Egyptian was making the sun or a bird their god and too many nature stuff and they said that the second authority after the king is the highly educated people for their knowledge and kind of stuff .
so the Pharaohs must know about their gods carefully and their properties

Creation is not a myth and aliens are.
God blessed Egypt with advanced knowledge for their fair treatment of the Jews in the days of Joseph.
With Joseph in power God ensured Israel's survival. The Egyptians were used by God so He rewarded them.

No, I do not believe that aliens helped the Egyptians, but hey crazier things have probably happened.

you may wish to dig a little deeper and read some of the oldest recorded history of mankind as found in the sumerian texts and or cylinder seals. a good read for you would be "the 12th planet" by zecharia sitchin. he is one of the few people with authorization and access to these seals stored in the basement of the british museum and has studied and translated these texts for over 30 years. your eyes will be opened.
