• My sister yesterday was like “why is it if you go back through any given religion’s history, they all started as sun worshippers?”

    I was like “I mean, if you’re born outside the sun is likely the first thing you see. Pop outta your mom and just be like ‘Ah shit! It’s fucking bright! Is that God?!’”

      Also, the sun is a cruel god. You need it to survive. To grow anything. But not just the sun. Just sun? Ya die. Too much sun and not enough other stuff? Likely dead. Too much sun for 3 months in a row? Maybe dead now, maybe dead later. Or lovely, hard to say.

          Have you ever seen the night sky in an area with no light pollution? I have to imagine a clear night sky back then was insane in a super moon.
