Just let it go, let the dreamers dream. Educate those willing to listen, and ignore those who aren't, rather than filling pages upon pages with back and forth thrown at people who aren't receptive to your ideas being shoved down their throats.

The entrances and interiors were covered over and sealed shut.
You might as well complain about how unfinished your wall looks after you rip out a piece of sheetrock.

There's parts of the original work, which show how crude it is compared to the main structure. Any more excuses?

Inside your gypsum wallboard is also original work which is very crude compared to the main structure you're in.
Maybe you should give some examples of what you're referring to rather than simply stating unfounded claims.

I HAVE posted a source with many examples of it, so why not read my post, and look at the link, before you spout any more nonsense. And then we can continue, if you wish..
The giants built the pyramids, NOT entrances, or corridors, built later on, BY humans, that's what confuses people about who built them.
Obviously, the entrances and corridors were done later on, after it was built. The ACTUAL builders of these pyramids, were the Nephelim, and those who butchered it later on, the Pharoahs, who stole the gold from the capstone, for their tombs, inside of it.
Even YOU know the pyramids have been tampered with for thousands of years, by humans, right?
Again, it was already built before humans came along, and butchered into it, afterwards, and put tombs of gold inside.
That's what slaves were for - to burrow INTO the pyramids,

Have a look at some features...
www.touregypt.net...
The interior features are all easily replicated, if we wanted to, unlike the main structure, which we cannot replicate, no matter how much we'd like to, or be able to.
If an average human is 5 ft 8 inches tall, or 68 inches, then a giant, 100 times larger, would be 6800 inches tall, or 566.66 feet tall!

With stones as hard as granite and only soft bronze tools to work them that would take a serious amount of time!

Time they had in abundance. It's not like they had anything else to do with that time.
As for precision stonework. I'm pretty sure plenty of stones were rejected and reworked for not being up to standard.
No doubt the best stonemasons got the best pay. An incentive to be the best.
shaping stones to have perfectly flat edges is not that hard. If you rub one stone back and forth against another, given enough time, one or both of the stones will eventually become perfectly flat and level.
There are other examples of precision stonework, specifically in Latin America, but also found in various other places around the globe that has stonework that comes in all different shapes and sizes. it's so precise one couldn't slide a cigarettes paper in between the joints. They look almost air-tight. It's incredible work. How did they achieve such precision with primitive tools?. I don't know, but I'll stick by my theory that given enough time and an incentive. Be that good pay or possibly pain of death early humans could achieve great things.

Yeah....right.
Soooo, the Egyptian pyramids, the largest is @454 ft. high, were built by giants--supposedly in the neighborhood of 566 ft tall...yet they built a pyramid that was actually smaller--height wise--then the builders were...
Do you realize how silly that is...??
The top of the superstructure over the sanctuary is 32.6 metres (107 ft) above the level of the court below,[3] although the rock face slopes downwards from the rear of the temple to the front. Archaeologists believe it is made from a single rock.[4]
The Kailasa Temple is notable for its vertical excavation—carvers started at the top of the original rock and excavated downward. The traditional methods were rigidly followed by the master architect which could not have been achieved by excavating from the front.[23]

Hooke, Harte, Byrd, Seagull and the rest of your lot.
Sometimes I wonder if you've lost the ability to walk upright. With such big heads and huge puffed up chests you must surely have a time carrying all that weight above the hips.
Your like the teenager that kicks all the toys out of the sandbox and wipes away the roads and mountains the toddlers have built, as in your mind they are stupid and imaginary.
The same time that rips down all the blankets in the living room fort, because obviously it's a parlor, not a play room. You probably also tore down your siblings Lego castles, as they weren't period correct.
Sheesh, give it a rest.
Reality not conforming to your fantasy? Blame others!
Hold on, I'll call the WAAAHmbulance.

It's a site to discuss people's ideas and speculation. Although some people's ideas or theorys may appear immature, and ignorant to the more institutionally educated crowd. To others they are fun and wonderous theorys that help to relax and dream of "what if”.
Over there last decade you've had the opportunity to have your say. A quick perusal of topics, will show how you feel and what you believe. There is no need to exacerbate an already flooded archive of your self important posts.
Just let it go, let the dreamers dream. Educate those willing to listen, and ignore those who aren't, rather than filling pages upon pages with back and forth thrown at people who aren't receptive to your ideas being shoved down their throats.
You assume the mantle of Great Arbiter of ATS. Perhaps you're unaware of the site's motto: "Deny Ignorance."
Sorry, but no. You don't get to decide what this site is all about.
When you spout ignorance here, it will be denied. Admittedly not as often as it used to be, but as often as we can manage.
Harte
Classic.
Ridicule the poster when you don't agree, check.
Accuse the other of what you're doing, check.
I'll never pretend to try be an "arbitrator of Truth", that would be your mantle.
Yourself and your gang of groupies glide in circles, like vultures ready to gang up on the unwary poster having the audacity to bring up a theory you don't agree with.
It's not so much your subject matter, or your belief. It's the way you'll patronize, ridicule, and outright abuse anyone who dare try to defend their ideas.
How dare a "infidel" propose to have an idea out of the mainstream. Heresy!
As for Einstein. It was well known he used thought experiments to help flesh out his real world math.
There's a very big difference between denying ignorance and showing people evidence VS ridiculing anyone you feel is below you. Of course needing a gaggle of pedantic Groupies to help sooth your ego. What use is it to ridicule without an audience eh?
My hypothesis is that you enjoy belittling those less educated than yourself rather than actually teaching or sharing your knowledge. Psychopathy much?

30And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it. 31But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we. 32And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature. 33And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.

Self-imposed ignorance deserves ridicule.
I absolutely agree with you here. Any poster who's purposely ignorant and refuses to accept basic reality deserves a little correction here and there.

It gets kind of repetitive after you've heard the same story at least five times a year for 15 years,
Lets see some real examples of these fantastic claims you make ...
I understand this all too well myself, however a little tolerance for the uninitiated would go a long way.

It's less about not being able to replicate them, and more about nobody wanting to pay the money required to replicate them. They're expensive to make.
We know that the technology to make them has been replicated by primitive humans because the indigenous people of Mexico did it, as did the people of Cambodia. In fact the Cambodian pyramids are more advanced than the Egyptian ones.
Some of the castles and cathedrals of Europe used almost identical techniques. But were a different shape.
