      Right so my point is not that Egyptians had a cornerstone on truth but that the way they viewed reality was different, and not merely inferior because they perceived things in a way that enabled them to invent what we won't invent today.

      My point is further that our method of inquiry is only theoretically epistemological and in practice contains a lot of ideology related to our society's form of perception as well. We did not necessarily discard our ethos and inherited prejudice (based on the way we perceive the world to function) when we decided to create a method of inquiry that does not depend on authority.

      Furthermore, I'm not going to get into speculation but I don't believe ideology enabled Egyptians to discover biogeometry (a term I'm sort of borrowing and reapplying to architectural resonance). I don't believe their religious ideology enabled them to combine unscientific reasoning and scientific discovery. I believe rather it is our own ideology which disables us from utilizing "unscientific" discovery because our application of "unscientific" is handed out ideologically.

      Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.

      So - what did they invent, that we wouldn't invent today?
      What does biogeometry mean and architectural resonance - and on what evidence do you base your belief in these phenomena?


      What do you mean by unscientific discovery?
      Laymen doing things? Unusual and not yet validated topics?
      If they deliver the goods - they are taken seriously - indeed LaBerge is a perfect example for that.
