But the article's title suggests that the highly developed Egyptian culture with pyramids and pharoahs we think of as ancient Egypt is 10,000 years older than we thought, which isn't what the article is about, nor what the recent discovery tells us.

Since tooblue's point is premised on this highly misleading title he fails to make his point. We do know with a fair degree of precision the age of the Egyptian culture depicted in the OT. What a curious belief for a devout Mormon--there's no such thing as truth. It's nonsense.
Truth exists Seattle ... but is the woman spinning clockwise or anti-clockwise
