Deep outer-space, as we conceive it, does not exist. Outer space and all that is purported to exist beyond the uppermost layer of the earths
atmosphere is merely an occult metaphor for esoteric spiritual concepts. Outer space, with its alleged cosmic events and forces, does not exist in the real, physical world. NASA has never seen anything beyond or made it past the firmament or what we would call the Van Allan Radiation belts; they can't. They themselves admit this.
There is no empirical evidence for dark matter, dark energy, black holes, singularities,schwarzchild radius, event horizons, neutron stars, wimps, machos,mond, Quasars, Massive Red Giant Stars, other Galaxies and Solar Systems, etc. They are all based on mythematics that build a structure which has no relation to reality. Just like George Lucas, they have utilized green screen technologies to achieve the same illusion of outer space.
Anyone using their real eyes can see the artificiality of this. All for what? Aside from NASA's obvious profit margin motive, being the largest black budget, black hole in existence, sucking in more than 30 billion dollars of tax payer money, well, to hide God and make Him further from us than He actually is. We have then been moved physically and metaphysically from a place of supreme importance to one of complete nihilistic indifference.
You know, there are actually people out there that believe this type of nonsense, or that the earth is flat, or that the moon landing was fake, etc. I personally thing it's a coping mechanism for them for dealing with things beyond their comprehension.
@BlueSkyKing I've tried to explain to him that if his goal is to bring more people to Christ, his approach is doing the exact opposite. I believe this is his intention. His "religion" wouldn't be any fun if it didn't draw hatred and contempt. He would have loved to live back in the Roman Empire when Christians were persecuted, as persecution validates him. You see that same current in modern American evangelicalism, where they're predicting that the Bible will be outlawed or their kids taken to reeducation camps where they will be forced to turn gay and practice Wicca.
@LeopoldBloom Looking at his ranting, especially recently, it's all wanting attention. Pointless to make any sort of retort, my reasoning isn’t respected. He needs the myth and magic.
@Sharon It could have been a neurological infection but, unlike the OP, I’m not going to pretend to have expertise I clearly don’t possess. I only got a “gentleman’s C” in college biology.
I have been an amateur astronomer for 45 years though. My 5 year-old granddaughter knows more about the cosmos than the OP does.
@redredred Actually, the God explanation doesn't even rise to that level. According to Popper's definition of science, a scientific postulate must be potentially falsifiable.
Some scientists believe we are part of a computer simulation based on the age of the universe it is (apparently) unfathomable that life hasn't evolved beyond what it has, ergo we are a computer sim. Kinda disturbing all round.
