I agree with that part. Obviously they did it somehow and I think even you are not going to suggest that Leedskalnin did it with the help of aliens are you?
As for the other questions, I don't have any idea how it was done, but to me the idea that it was all done with the help of aliens is the most far fetched possibility. Just because we don't know why they did it or how they did it is not cause enough, to me, to start leaping to the conclusion that aliens must have done it or it was all built for aliens.
As for lighting the insides of the pyramids, Leedskalnin figured out some way of generating electricity. Maybe the ancient Egyptians came up with some kind of device for lighting things up. Why not? They sure have us beat with their ability to move those massive blocks.
To me, the most intriguing connection is Leedskalnin. I believe figuring out how he did it is the key to the entire mystery of the ancient civilizations. It's a shame he took his secrets to the grave, but I don't see how anyone can dispute that he did these things all by himself. If nothing else, at least we know why he built Coral Castle. Along with how the ancients built the pyramids, the Nazca lines, etc, I'd also love to know why they built them. My idea is the ancients had some sort of technology that has somehow been lost over time. But aliens? The proof that aliens had anything to do with it simply is not there.
