COSMOLOGICAL DARK AGES

COSMOLOGICAL DARK AGES

By Mad Plato

If a space telescope can peer at the “cosmological dark ages” and see 10,000 galaxies, why can’t a terrestrial microscope see the origin of events that lead up to 9-11 and the preemptive war on Iraq?

It’s puzzling and perplexing. Maybe what we think we’ll find at the end of this tunnel frightens us into not wanting to see that far.

The farthest known galaxy is a mere 13.2 billion light-years away, but the closest the American public seems to get to the truth about 9-11 and Iraq comes from rapid and rabid sound-bites from network and cable news. Then there are the radio talk shows. Where is the Truth and how can IT be found?

The Internet.

Yes, it has a plethora of information. Just the opposite of fast sound-bites. But it is from these many sites of the Internet where truths may be seen, and little by little the Truth becomes visible and the Darkness becomes Light. This description sounds way too heavy and cosmological, I’m sure.

Let’s look at War and Peace. They have always been at odds.

The universe has always known about these opposing forces just as God has known about them.

Christ confronted Mammon.

Did he win?

Have we as a species lost?

What has been won if we have lost?

But getting back to “cosmological dark ages”, the Earth itself seems to be in its own darkened age.

Perhaps every generation says the same about their own time.

Monsters and barbarians are still alive in our hearts, waiting for the powers of the good, the true and the beautiful to conquer them---as well as the terrorists within and without our borders.

Meanwhile, there are other humans on terra firma who are trying to shine light and lights upon the events of 9-11 and the war in Iraq.

Godspeed this search to let the world and America gain insights into the birth of these two tragedies.

. Now go count some stars.
