They"re big enough to be seen from space. Why would the ancient Egyptians build something big enough to be seen from space? It's almost like they were trying to signal someone.

You really don’t know your bible.
There aren’t any other people named Joseph outside of the Bible?

Just like the faster you drive the better your gas mileage, the bigger you build it the cheaper it is

You're thinking of only the Great Pyramid. The others were definitely burial chambers, probably based on the Great Pyramid design.
There's no way it was a tomb if there were no hieroglyphics inside. Those are essential to the core of their religious beliefs. Their absence absolutely rules out the assertion that it was a tomb. The sarcophagus that is there was obviously not built by the same people who constructed the pyramid.
I think much of "ancient Egypt" was built on the ruins of a much older, dead civilization, one the Egyptians were aware of, but that was wiped out by a great flood.

Probably for the same reason people believe Notre Dame is a church

I just want to clarify that OP has been disowned by LSU.

Why do people think Pyramids in Egypt are burial tombs but have no problem regarding the Mexico and Central American pyramids as religious or ceremonial structures
“Newer” Egyptian pyramids relative to the Giza pyramids were cheap imitations. Some of which were co-opted by minor rulers as “their” pyramid.
Zosher and the Step pyramid were most likely older that served as a learning experience but the craftsmanship of the great pyramid is unrivaled.
The only faint hieroglyph found in the great pyramid is in the Kings room. A very faint 90° angle etching which at time of construction was a hieroglyphic for Love, Purity or Clarity of Mind. Context depending.
I’ve laid in the sarcophagus there. The resonance you can achieve from holding different notes is stunning.
An amazing stat is out of of all the records of ancient Egyptian kings, only 10% of their tombs have been discovered.
There is still a lot of missing history to be found there.
I’d say the story of the pyramids is still unfolding but they are not tombstones.

Is it missing, or is it being withheld from us?
