There is not much to discuss regarding Atlantis itself, rather what effects it had, of which the most obvious one is the strange history of Egypt.
Egypt came to being in a few decades. Extreme knowledge in mathematics, astrology and philosophy came out of 'nothing' so fast that it's simply puzzling. There was nothing before egypt, then poof, one of the most prominient and greatest empires to have ever existed.
The theory I find most credible is that the fantastic knowledge came from outside, and the remnant surviving scholars from the fall of Atlantis is likely this cause.
(The years Ra gives fits quite nicely in this theory also, where the Sphinx and a few temples (with no hieroglyphs) would likely be created somewhere around the fall of Atlantis.)
Call it Atlantis or whatever you wish, but I find it obvious that there was a great civilization before Egypt. We only hold mysterious pieces of puzzles left to fit together now though, like the Temple of Man.
