I stumbled across this site and found it extremely
interesting. Only to the point of that some have claimed to have found
accurate use of inches in the times of the ancient Egyptians. Inches that
are very close in value to modern inches. No wonder the BWMA claims the
inches of today go back to very ancient times.
Excerpts:
The casing stones.....
Amazingly, the outside surface stones are cut within 0.01 (1/100th) inch of
perfectly straight and at nearly perfect right angles for all six sides. And
they were placed together with an intentional gap between them of 0.02 inch.
Modern technology cannot place such 20-ton stones with greater accuracy than
those in the Pyramid.
Even more amazing is that the 0.02-inch gap was designed to allow space for
glue to seal and hold the stones together. A white cement that connected the
casing stones and made them watertight is still intact and stronger than the
blocks that it joins.
Here are some real gems! Even the ancient Jews used
inches. And look how closely it equals the British inch? Can you get
any more close?
And even the number of days in the year are revealed in
the dimensions of the pyramid when those dimensions are in inches.
After studying the detailed measurements made by the investigators before
him, Newton recognised that many key measurements would be in round numbers if
the standard unit of measure was just 0.001 (1/1,000) inch larger than the
British inch-which just happens to be the Sacred Jewish Inch. (The Sacred Jewish
Inch, 1/25 of a cubit, equals 1.00106 British inches.) This discovery allowed
the secrets of the Pyramid to be unlocked and revealed unmistakable and
mathematical relationships. For instance:
- We know from geometry that there is a universal relationship between the
diameter of a circle and its circumference. Consider this: The height of the
Pyramid's apex is 5,812.98 inches, and each side is 9,131 inches from corner
to corner (in a straight line). If the circumference of the Pyramid is divided
by twice its height (the diameter of a circle is twice the radius), the result
is 3.14159, which just happens to be pi. Incredibly, this calculation is
accurate to six digits. So the Pyramid is a square circle, and thus pi was
designed into it 4,600 years ago. Pi is demonstrated many times throughout the
Pyramid.
- Other numbers are also repeated throughout. Each of the Pyramids four
walls, when measured as a straight line, are 9,131 inches, for a total of
36,524 inches. At first glance, this number may not seem significant, but move
the decimal point over and you get 365.24. Modern science has shown us that
the exact length of the solar year is 365.24 days.
- All of the evidence in the Great Pyramid shows that 4,600 years ago
somebody knew a great deal about the Earth. But it gets better, much better:
- The average height of land above sea level (Miami being low and the
Himalayas being high), as can be measured only by modern-day satellites and
computers, happens to be 5,449 inches. That is the exact height of the
Pyramid.
I wouldn't be surprised if the BWMA isn't somehow
connected with this circle of people who publish this nonsense. But, to
the ignorant masses, it sounds very real and very plausible.
