Should the Moon be Left Untouched by Man?

Hi all,

There is many a persuasive theory that the Moon landings of 1969 were in fact faked. More than one horary on this site suggested that they were. Personally, I sincerely hope so. For me, the Moon is completely sacred. It should be left well alone and respected. I hate to think that it has been trampled all over, which is a desecration of it's divinity. I see it being tampered with by mankind in any way, as great sacrelige. What is your take on this as astrologists?

Draco

Hi Draco,

Out of curiosity, do you feel that way about humans visiting other planets in the solar system?

Hi Elianah,

Yes, I think I do. It's just that I feel that it's sacrelige of the highest possible order imaginable. I can't see how knowing what the rocks on Mars are composed of, or how much Jupiter weights is of any relevance to our lives, but knowing how these wandering stars appear to be behaving in the sky from our perspective down here most certainly is.

We get ignorant, foolish skeptics who are supposed to be intelligent saying things like 'Venus is supposed to represent things like sweetness and beauty to these stupid astrologers...ha ha...that's because in times of old they were so stupid that they didn't even realise that Venus is covered in constantly active, enormous volcanoes and it rains sulphuric acid'. So what? That makes absolutely no difference what so ever, because from our perspective from here on earth, Venus is sweet and beautiful, and that's all that matters, that is all we are meant to know about her.

Anyone who has any doubt that this earth was intricately positioned where it is especially to play host to the life that was designed for it, had better come up with a reasonable explanation as to why it is that the Sun and Moon, while of massively different geographical proportions and mathematical distances, should just so happen to appear to be precisely the same size, from our perspective here on earth, making an perfect eclipse possible. Coincidence? Oh please! How much more evidence do we need that they are a timing device, and *** only knows what else, that were intricately positioned that way by some intellect that we cannot comprehend.

*** knows, we've already raped and mutilated this planet of ours where we were designed to be as it is, *** forbid we should ever move on to plague other worlds. :? Thank *** I will never see it in my lifetime.

It would be considered an outrage to be dismantling mosques or temples in the name of scientific analysis, and yet it's okay to consider trampling all over the Moon and other planets, which are yet infinately more precious, out of nothing other than childish curiosity, regardless of the most ancient faiths or to astrologers to whom these things are sacrosanct in the utmost.

The woodlands and the forests were once sacred, look what happened to them. :cry: If the manifestations of The Divine which are the stars and planets should be subject to such abuse, I cannot think of any one thing more heart breaking.

Our skies have already been defiled from our perspective down here. Probably the great majority of souls in this world today do not even recognise the most obvious constellations, nor are able to tell the difference between a star and a planet when they see it. This is a lamentable tragedy. Light pollution in our towns and cities comes to blind us more and more to the indescribable majesty of the night sky, and so our divorce from The Divine and our descent into Hell continues. This is bad enough without building cities on poor old Luna's back.

I'm not against finding out more about these the stars and planets, like getting a good look at them close, if they really feel the need to titalate themselves with such practically useless information. I am very much against them going and leaving footprints all over our pure, sacred, undefiled Luna, and as for taking 'civilisation' further afield, I cannot torture myself to even think about that.

There was a poem I remember reading in my teens called, 'The day They Turned the Moon Into a Coca-Cola Sign', and I have never forgotten the profound misery of that piece of writing. Unfortunately I cannot find the poem, but I will continue to search and eventually post it forward, to be considered in light of this thread.

If it was possible do you not think the Coca Cola corporation, if they could, would not turn the Moon into a neon sign to advertise cola? Of course they would. Terrifying!!! :x

No matter how depraved humanity becomes down here, no matter how much the manifestation of God Itself which is the earth that plays host to us is mutilated and destroyed, then at least we've always got the perfect heavens to look up to to remind us that God exists. If the heavens and it's precious contents are to succumb to the same fate, then we are left with nothing, we are left abandoned in Hell, with no way out.

Draco

Hi Draco

Nice post! But I'd inquire: why is the Moon or Venus or any other planet more sacred than the Earth?
The Earth is a totally amazing and wonderful place to live on. The fact that most of us choose to ignore that or even worse, they do the opposite, they damage it, doesn't make it less sacred.
I don't know how it is up there, beyond Earth's field of force, but I think that if the intentions are noble, exploring the space out there, including landing on other planets is ok.

I mean: who could blame me for wanting to go in special places on Earth with the intention of admiring Earth's beauties and filling my soul with them? Why should going in outer space or other planets, with pure intentions, be otherwise?

Thumbs up Re: Should the Moon be Left Untouched by Man?

I agree with Draco about the moon but not the other planets. The moon is special, governing female fertility, births/deaths,etc. I was outraged that they landed there. They should have gone straight to Mars.

some reading material for people still thinking the moon landing was a hoax

http://www.badastronomy.com/bad/misc/apollohoax.html


as for space travel, I think it's a waste of time and money. I see it as a distraction from real problems here at home.

oh, I was looking through that site and came across this. I'm sure you'll all enjoy it.
