Perhaps you'd like to re-read what I wrote?

Why? Would it magically change into something that is accurate?

Wow - very cool tool!


Too bad you couldn't quite figure out how to use it.


Here's a hint: Set your location to, oh, Egypt. (Or anywhere actually)


Set your time to ballpark winter sunrise, oh, say, December 24th, year 1, 6am. (It'd actually be closer to 7am in Egypt at the dead of winter but just go with it)


Now try to find Sirius. Or Orion.


Hint #2, they won't be there.

Religious people just make me laugh. They still believe in the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus and think that anyone who doesn't is not going to get any presents.


It's freakin' hilarious!

Better yet - why not set it to ohhhh jerusalem and instead of 7am... Lets go for something more akin to when people would be traveling using the stars - like Oh I dunner after SUNSET....

Because that's not the claim Zeitgeist made?

It doesn't really matter - you said such an alignment was unpossible. If you used the tools provided not only would you realize you are a efftard and that 'The three kings' and sirius are always aligned (the very definition of the complete opposite of what you claimed) - you'd realize oh right - that you are a fuck tard...


Zeitgeist posted:

"The star in the East is Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky which, on December 24th aligns with the three brightest stars in Orion's Belt. These three stars in Orion's Belt are called today what they were called in ancient times: 'The Three Kings'".

...

"And the Three Kings, and the brightest star Sirius, all point to the place of the sunrise on December 25th. This is why The Three Kings follow the Star in the East - in order to locate the sunrise - the birth of the sun."

Sunrise on Dec 25th... Meaning traveling during the evening of the 24th (what I said) to arrive at sunrise on the morning of the 25th...


Just stfu and go sit in the corner metal face...
