What's the real reason they mummified?
>>41346813DNA preservation to be brought back to life using Modern Science and not some silly god or soul nonsense
>>41346917In this moment, would you say you are euphoric?
to uphold cosmic orderas a fragment of the divine the pharaoh could join his ka and ba in union at duatbut if you want that whole process to go well you're gonna need to be nice to his corpsei mean he's hardly going to maintain maat if you aren't nice about it, its a lot of work, if he doesnt see proof of your devotion he's gonna just go fuck osiris instead of maintaining your shitty crops
well i should add, if you want to be a huge stupid bitch about it, the process of building a "pyramid" was a uniquely unifiying experience for a wide range of people who normally wouldn't have chance to trade and contact. you mobilize the entire population like that and you get results in politics. your neighbors see you have a cool fuckoff monument, damn that guy must be rich, better pause that invasion plan. and those subhuman freaks that think they're real citizens, you know the ones on the other side of our empire, well this is a great chance to spread our culture to them (mostly their wives and daughters, of course) and show them how if they rebel we'll still fucking crush them (again). its a good stress test of your stupidly bloated bureaucracy. there's also the "emperor's clothes" thing where anyone who questions your genius (intentionally stupid) designs is obviously not loyal enough and needs to be purged.
It's an art form...And all art forms are historic...In nature...And it's designed to be enduring...As in stood the test...Awww that's inspiring...Static time...Unto...Dynamic time...

>>41346931>you have to be Cattle B if you're not a Cattle AAmerican sheeple brainrot is truly something else. Do you know you don't have to be an atheishit to not believe in Abrahamic nonsense?
>>41346813Ancient Egyptian grifting. Just like how modern death industry gets people to pay for overpriced caskets and headstones, mummification was a scam with a bit more of a "if you don't do this for them they won't go to heaven" bent to it.
>>41349655Not believing in the true god is the definition of atheism. Alot of "believers" are athiest. Cope harder equivocationfag.
>>41351494>true godThe desert goatfucker deity?
>>41346813Why is the real reason not that which is purported? That being that they believed that preserving the physically body was important to advance in the afterlife?>>41350451This is the most likely answer.
