That is beautiful and frightening at once. How could anyone see that and read the scripture and not believe?

Which Scripture...does it matter if I read a Christian Bible, the Torah, Tibetan Book of the Dead, Bhagavad Gita??? or heaven forbid(all puns intended) the Koran (not particularly interested in that backward hate filled tome...)

point being, I see devinity in the Universe through these pictures and our beautiful planet...not so much from one particular set of scriptures...

See my post #13. Up until the recent invention of electricity, when the sun set, the surrounding world turned dark. In the darkness, people would look up to the sky and ponder those points of light. Today, only astronomers and the curious bother to look heavenward.
