The base of the Great Pyramid covers about thirteen acres. It consists of approximately 2.3 million blocks of stone weighing around 2.5 tons each, some weighing up to 50 tons. Some huge granite blocks, weighing 100 tons, are situated within the pyramid structure at a height of 46 meters. The base of the pyramid is a square with right angles accurate to within one-twentieth of a degree. It contains enough stone to build a six foot high wall from New York to Los Angeles. It has been suggested that there are enough blocks in the three pyramids to build a 3 m (10 ft) high, 0.3 m (1 ft) thick wall around France
These are the facts. Now explain to me how I am supposed to believe ancient man built this pyramid.
Facts taken from nephilimapocalypse.com and many other "pyramid" websites.

Also, dont try and tell me that man built it, for that is impossible. And if you are going to say that the Egyptians were just very smart, then how did they get thats smart while much of the rest of the world were living in primitive tent villages, etc.?

The ancient Egyptians left no obvious written explanation on how the Pyramids of the Giza Plateau were build. Therefore what do you think modern man is going to do to explain this?
First the explanation must fit into the realm of our experience not exceeding our knowledge and using the technology we apply to their era. .........This can be a limiting trap!
We do know that some of the lesser pyramids were build by Egyptians, however the Great Pyramid still leaves some mystery to anyone who has seriously studied it. Yes you can create scenarios with massive amounts of workers specialized tools and a lot of time, but this does not mean how it was done.
Now the next bit of information is for you because it appears that you are starting a path to discovery. It it will be too much for most other consciousness not ready.
The Nephilim did not build them. Focus your attention on a man called Thoth. His archetype during ancient times was that of a scribe God. However he was an actual being. Maybe some ancient texts like "The Emerald Tablets" or "The Ancient Secrets of the Flower of Life" or "Thoth the Atlantian" would get you started.
But remember the"Whys" are more important than the "Whos" or "Hows"
Good Hunting!

They could quite easily be man made. The Egyptians built the pyramids to honor their pharaohs and to help them get to the afterlife. They were an incredibly resilient people. Many methods have been demonstrated that would allow the slaves to transport the material. Others have shown how they would have carved the materials. Others have shown how they would have stacked them and fitted them using notches. They were also very good at mathematics. They would have used the stars to calculate due North. They could line it up with sticks placed vertically in the ground. To level the pyramids, they probably built a moat around the area, and then leveled off the area inside so that the water was even with the surface at all points. I think one important thing you are missing is their incredible man power. Societies today would shy away from a task like that, but they did it for honor and that was extremely important. Another important point is that it took them a VERY long time to construct just one pyramid, at least 25 years, likely 30. Today's technology could create a pyramid, quite easily. However, we don't possess the drive to undertake such a task. No, our cranes wouldn't be much use, but you get a tractor trailer and build some ramps and you are good to go. The Egyptians were neither stupid nor lazy, and we should respect their incredible manpower and will rather than defer the greatness of to 'Gods.'

There is an anomaly in the dating of the Great Pyramid and the step pyramid, bent pyramid and others. Although archeologists claim the Great Pyramid was built later, the dating of the pyramids suggest the Great Pyramid was built FIRST.
The answer is the Egyptians did not build the Great Pyramid. The bent pyramid and step pyramid were built in their attempt to copy the Great Pyramid. Took them a while before they discovered exactly how to do it.
So who built it? Dunno. Why is the Sphinx the same age? Dunno. But it's great fun to speculate on who they were and where they went and WHY the Great Pyramid was built. Apparently the tomb was added much later. Whatever was originally in there was probably hauled out and thrown away by people who didn't know what it was for.

Strange as it may seem this is the only viable explanation.
The Egyptians were master builders as can be seen by their later efforts at Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel.
Most of the methods for building the Great Pyramid have been worked out. The only mystery is the movement and placing of such huge blocks of stone.
Those who say it was only done with slave labor get their history from Hollywood.

There have been many shows on how it was done, and even recreations of how it may have been acheived. It was done with massive amounts of manpower. Modern men are full of themselves when the reduce the ancients to race of idiots who could not figure out complicated things. I watched a show just the other day about how the temple of Karnak was built. They used what they had plenty of sand...would fill one level with sand after it was built and than build the other on top of the lower one. When completed the sand was excavated and the temple remained. Nothing alien about it.

For my money the best guess is spiral scaffolding. That way they could move the blocks up an incline with minimal effort with a pulley system.
