Deep outer space and God's Glory

What would it matter to not believe in this thing called, "deep outer space"? (What exists beyond what the Bible describes) Is that truly an absurd idea?


The only real difference to us would be that our unfathomable, untouchable observations of the glory of God (Psalm 19) wouldn't be conceptualized into a philosophical vast, empty void called deep outerspace.


We have been trained to think of this kind of thinking as taking a step backwards in, "what we know". But, could it be the step back that we need to take, to move forward in what we CAN know? Could we, with this way of thinking, actually start looking INTO the vast expanses of the glory of God, rather than the vast expanses of an empty, soulless void?
Maybe... in God's glory, He even left us a Manual for this kind of exploration. Would this kind of exploration in an inward direction, and into our relating to a personal and relational God, and HIS Glory, be a more focused and productive form of exploration?


Am I making silly, or absurd leaps?


Could it be that when Neil Armstrong, in 1969 said , " That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” That mankind really stepped, or even lept into something?
(And it wasn't Martian poo.)


What exactly was the, "giant leap", mankind was taking? It certainly didnt really end up being anything other than a philosophical one. Wouldn't we REALLY notice consequential things after that said, "giant leap"?


But, the things I guess that we could notice about this, "giant leap", are ;


The idea of an outer space philosophy being cemented into the minds and hearts of man.


The idea that man can accomplish whatever it puts its scientific mind to.


A blind trust in a religion called scientism. (Trusting science in regards to the scientific method is pretty rock solid, but it is the trust in, "scientists", that lead us into all kinds of problems)


The idea that we dont need this old fashioned, archaic concept of God.


The idea that earth is a ball floating pointlessly through an infinite void called, deep outer space.


Ironically, It all seems like it could be defined as mankind taking a giant leap AWAY from God's Glory.


Is it really a giant leap, to now be only sending supposed rovers, remotely into deep space and exploring what the Bible calls "wandering stars", that we have come to label as planets?


Can we REALLY even trust these supposed scientists, who are supposedly doing this?
I say that there just may be enough precedent set, (by scientists and those who pay them and control what they say.) that we cant.


And WHY, or HOW did NASA admittedly lose all of this technology that let man walk on the moon? This seems like an abuse, or waste of a " giant leap".


And why are the Great Powers that be, more obsessed with bringing to us through technology, classical tyranny and a rebuilt or recreated trans human man, right HERE on earth? (NOT, man leaping into outer space). Is this use of technology , a use where the, 'god of this world", thinks all of THAT will bring to him, his untouchable glory?


Isn't THAT the truly absurd idea?






How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
Isaiah 14:12‭-‬15 KJV
