The Sun, the Moon, and Me

93,000,000 Miles Away.....Really? This is a real pic that a friend took while visiting the statue, so I know it isn't photo shopped. She wasn't even trying to capture it. She was just snapping a pic and inadvertently got a great shot. 

If you notice, the rays extending from the sun are very short, which shows how close it is. If the sun was 93,000,000 miles away the rays would extend far out of our range of vision. (My opinion, not a scientific fact.)

 This is another picture that gives me pause

                                The full moon, taken by a friend, not photo shopped

 Moon: Distance to Earth  238,855 miles. 

If the moon is 238,855 miles away, how can it appear to be in front of the electrical wires? Just a question that passed through my mind immediately upon seeing this picture. Not trying to insinuate anything. Just questioning the narrative based on my own observations. 

Science tells us it is only 238,885 miles away to explain why the sun and moon appear to be the same size.

Science also tells us the moon is not a source of light, it does not have it’s own light. It reflects light from the sun and stars, which gives it the appearance of producing it’s own light. The light coming from the moon is reflected sunlight bouncing off the moon's surface, which is referred to as moonglow. 

God said: 

Genesis 1:14-19 says: “Then God said, “Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years; and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth”; and it was so. Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. 

He made the stars also. God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. So the evening and the morning were the fourth day.”

According to the Bible the moon is a source of light...it is in and of itself a luminary placed in the sky to give light...a lesser light to rule the night. It does not say: Let the moon reflect the sun's light to rule the night. 

          This photo is supposed to show the positions of the earth, sun and moon 

       

If this is accurate, I do not see how the moon would reflect the light from the sun. The earth is much larger than the moon and is positioned between the moon and the sun. I'm not a scientist, so I can't speak to the physics or complicated mathematical equations involved. I just have 2 eyes, and the common sense and reasoning that God gave me...and this don't add up. You can draw your own conclusions of course.
