So, just because we don't know how they "moved" those big blocks, we've become less intelligent somehow? Even though we've gone on to invent marvelous things, such as radios, microwaves, televisions, and computers?



And for the record, the pyramids weren't built via hauling huge blocks. The blocks were actually pourded thanks to a limestone based concrete mix that allowed the pyramids to be constructed relatively quickly, not over hundreds of years as some people would try and have you believe. Pour the mix, wait for it to harden, move on to the next. Pretty clever, actually.
