Actually to try deceive people the way you did is against any moral standard.
People such as yourself have tried to disprove the Bible again and again. However the theology you have is misguided and end in embarrassment.
What are you talking about? Or did you just read the last sentace and make some assumptions? You didn't even respond to the question, which makes me think you don't understand it.
Some people say the Egyptions wouldnt have been able to build the pyramids.
Anyone know how they actually did it?
The ancient Israelites may have been made to build them. The Bible does list a couple of cities that they were made to build:
Exodus 1:1-11 (King James Version)
1Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt; every man and his household came with Jacob.
2Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
3Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
4Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
5And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already.
6And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation.
7And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them.
8Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.
9And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we:
10Come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of the land. 11Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses.

The ancient Egyptians were actually very advanced. The Bronze Age (2300 B.C. to 1200 B.C.) was the time period where so much of their creativity flourished. They produced the Code of Hammurabi that many scholars believe Moses borrowed from when He gave the Israelites his law code.

The Israelities may have built the pyramids of Sesostris III and Amenemhet III. These pyramids are far poorer quality than the Giza pyramids. The Giza pyramids are supposed to have been built much earlier.

Actually this is mostly true. Hammurabi however was not an Egyptian, but a Babylonian. Many of the OT stories, not just 10 comandments were taken from Mesopotamian mythology.
Here is a portian of an article taken from wikipedia.

Gods and Goddesses from Sumer have distinctly similar representations in the religions of the Akkadians, Caananites, and others.

This too is partially true when you look at the evidence for the world wide flood and everything else.
Actually, Elvis went back in time and designed them prior to faking his own death. That's why there's so much tacky gold stuff in there.
was this before or after I saw Elvis on the spaceship with Bigfoot?

just kidding, no i don't think mork, zim, ET, clingons, gould, or any other species of alien helped build the pyramids. I do think that the anctient civilazations of this particular world knew much more than we give them credit for.
There is nothing new under the sun. Those before us also possessed great knowledge. Recently it has been shown how using simple rocks and poles as levers it is possible to move incredibly large stones. There is a farmer who does this as a hobby. He has shown how rocks the size of Stonehenge could be moved by one man. Supposedly the Egyptian records called the book of the dead call the pyramid the "pillar of Enoch".
