(in answer to Eveleen Castelyn)
When the Russian cosmonaut
Yury Alekseyevich Gagarin
did enter space as the first human being
he made it known
that he could not find the Lord God there
but he was too blinded
to see Him in every living thing,
too impudent and cocky to realize
that man does yearn for a more omnipotent being
and still we are searching for life,
for something, for someone
in the great universe
like paradise shuttle travellers
as if we who are full of iniquity
are able to see the God of righteousness
and are able to live on
after such a experience
and are able to witness His perfect creation
that is sinless
as if He will leave us to enter such places
and do irreparable harm
as if He does not in a way
keep us away
as if some men do disregard a relationship with God,
as a certain way of preparing for interstellar travel
where the omnipotent Lord God
does laugh at man's primitive science,
at man's inadequate intellect and methods
where some people do regard themselves
as being equal to an omnipotent Lord God.
