There's a school of thought that aliens - beings from other planets with more advanced civilisations - visited Earth over many millennia and influenced technological and social advancements.
I don't subscribe to this but, on the other hand don't entirely discount it either because there are still many unexplained events, structures and reports of just that. Most of these are mixed up in religious beliefs, lore, practices and artefacts and could very likely explain the more bizarre aspects of the various religions particularly those relating to beings from the 'heavens'.
What prompted this short, almost filler post is that Robert posted a pic of His Lady on his most recent post (I use the term 'post' generously).
I don't know why Robert posted this along with this little incantation -
'Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee
Blessed are thou among women.'
- there was no explanation. Maybe it's some sort of Catholic religious feast day today to do with the old bint being 'assumed' into heaven.
Anyway, the image is bizarre and reminded me of something. I did an internet search and found these images:
These suggest that Mary might have been jet or hydro-propelled upwards into 'heaven'.
More likely than that (but still incredibly unlikely) the stories, lore if you will, that became religious belief and subsequently depicted in paintings was initiated by some spaceman flying about.
Well, it's more credible than Robert's view anyway.
Personally, I think that the Hutt Valley Church of Christ might have all the answers. It's weird that all the planets in our solar system, except for two, spin in the same direction. Also, bees know from birth that their job is to get honey. You've got to ask the question, "Who tells bees that's their job?"
ReplyDeleteWell, since God gave us free will, he would have more time to guide new bees. God wants us to believe in his beekeeping skills if we want to get into Heaven. It is also pretty obvious that those two planets that spin the other way are Devil Planets. God gives us the faith to know that as a fact.

Thanks for that. I'll look for a similar group up here in Whangarei. It's a good thing that God gave us faith to use instead of that silly old logic and common-sense nonsense.
DeleteYou're on to ot buddy. God loves you! Well, when he's got time and not sexually.*

ReplyDeleteYeah I got it. We understand illiteracy up here in the North.
