Great post. The world we live in is way more exciting now that our reality isn't getting punked by the ridiculous notion that water sticks to the outside of a spherical earth and people walk around upside down in relation to each other on the outside of that sphere as it spins and wobbles through empty space. The workings of the celestial bodies draw us in the direction of God in contemplation of greater things beyond and above. Its a desire to penetrate the veil of the seen, the unseen, and the unknown. I think about this stuff all the time and your words indicate that you've probably felt that overwhelming awe it inspires many times. What is that thing up there? What is it made of? How does it stay up there? Its my favorite thing to do: wonder.
That's exactly what I meant! I look up at the Sky and see the Sun and Moon floating around up there and have no idea why they do that! And, I don't think anyone else does either! But we have this Modern attitude, based on The Philosophy of Modernism, that is so arrogant, that we think we know it all/some day, like Star Trek, science will have all the answers, which is to say, Man can answer all the mysterious of The World, including Life and Death, just through his reason. Bologna!
