“Nope. God worshipper.”
Reading posts like this almost makes me wish I had not taken on a consulting job for that week and drove a few hundred miles instead.
Regarding God - there are verses in the Bible that talk about God placing stuff in the “heavens”, and they are for signs, etc.
I’ve always thought that a total eclipse was a great sign from God. Not of impending doom or whatever - but that He is the Creator.
The sun is the perfect size.
The moon is the perfect size.
The sun is the perfect distance.
The moon is the perfect distance.
And a subset (but more importantly) the moon has a really good mass (perfect??), and distance that affect our ocean tides to keep the shallow ocean water moving and beaches clean, etc.
And mankind is alive at that very geological “moment” to observe the resulting eclipses. As the moons orbit degrades, they will change.
