Showing results for "an astronaut" in Religion & Spirituality

Erich von Daniken has exhaustively researched and analyzed the great world religions, their myths and belief structures, in an effort to find an answer to a question that has fascinated humans for millennia: who, or what, were the Gods described in ancient stories? His extraordinary conclusion? The Gods were not metaphysical beings born of humanity's overactive imagination, but extraterrestrials who left traces of their presence everywhere on Earth.

Space is vast, but rarely do we think that time is vast, too. Are we the first to visit Earth? Are we the only ones to ever do so? Since ancient times there have been strange stories of strange visitors from the stars. Ancient man often referred to these beings as gods and goddesses, but with a more modern perspective, many have begun to see these age-old myths and legends much differently. One of the most remarkable new interpretations is the ancient astronaut theory.

In February 1971, as Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell hurtled Earthward through space, he was engulfed by a profound sense of universal connectedness. He intuitively sensed that his presence and that of the planet in the window were all part of a deliberate, universal process, and that the glittering cosmos itself was, in some way, conscious. The experience was so overwhelming, Mitchell knew his life would never be the same.

Stacey Morgan kissed her husband goodbye before he donned his space suit on July 20, 2019, and headed to his waiting Soyuz rocket. With an overwhelming mix of pride, excitement, and terror, she and her children held hands and watched the rocket ignite and lift off for a nine-month mission aboard the International Space Station.

This book encourages Christians to move beyond a consumerist and legalistic view of faith, and to live out the true meaning of Christianity in their daily lives. It challenges readers to examine their own beliefs and traditions, questioning if they align with biblical principles or are merely inherited doctrines. The author uses the metaphor of a "cardboard astronaut" to describe individuals willing to push boundaries and explore new possibilities in their walk with Christ. He emphasizes the importance of compassion, urging readers to actively serve those around them and share the love of God.

At the turn of the century, in the area now known as Iraq, British archeologists discovered thousands of clay tablets detailing a time when the first civilized people lived among their gods, which they called the Anunnaki. These people were the ancient Sumerians, who left intricate wall carvings showing their interaction with these beings and depicting them with wings or coming down from heaven on winged disks. They possessed detailed information about our solar system including the existence of the planet of the gods, called Nibiru.

Do the stories in the Bible and other sacred texts speak of Gods or Extraterrestrials? The history of the human race and our true origins of where we come from can be traced back through archeology and a careful study of our past. Many of the world’s ancient sites and amazing artifacts still exist, showing ancient man’s use of advanced technology - but how was this knowledge gained?

Have we had visits from extraterrestrial life in the distant past and did these ancient astronauts help us create our civilization? Let us see. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Dating to the fifth millennium BC, Sumerian civilization emerged seemingly out of nowhere, with no predecessor, in the land that is now southern Iraq. It has been known as Mesopotamia, Babylon, and Akkadia, but the Sumerians were the first culture to inhabit the land. We attribute to the Sumerians over 100 of the firsts needed for an advanced civilization.

We are told the moon has been here since before the dawn of man and is either a part of the Earth itself or a vagabond captured by our world eons ago. But is this true? There are many theories for the existence of the moon, but all have been proven wrong. The moon is far older than previously acknowledged by science, quite possibly older than the Earth or the sun. Our moon is not a solid object; it is indeed hollow and is the only moon in the solar system that has a stationary, near-perfect circular orbit.
