Planets
Okay, so this isn't a Bible issue, per se, but I just read that beginning tomorrow in Prague there will be a 12-day meeting to decide if Pluto is really a planet. Huh? So, if it doesn't meet some random criteria it won't be able to get federal funding or something? For the life of me I can't figure out why that would be important. We've been calling Pluto a planet since 1930. I wonder how much it's costing to question whether it qualifies? I wonder how many people that amount would feed? I wonder if Jesus would spend time having an international meeting to decide if a random batch of matter could properly be called a "planet." Suppose we've been duped all these years and Pluto is really a moon of Neptune or something. Will they take away my high school diploma?
Sometimes I think our world is really on Pluto...unsure of what it is and at the far extreme end of the solar system...
