I just love this picture of earth from the moon....



ﻦﻳﻮﻜﺗ 1:1-2

ﻦﻳﻮﻜﺗ 1
1 فِي الْبَدْءِ خَلَقَ اللهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ،

2 وَإِذْ كَانَتِ الأَرْضُ مُشَوَّشَةً وَمُقْفِرَةً وَتَكْتَنِفُ الظُّلْمَةُ وَجْهَ الْمِيَاهِ، وَإِذْ كَانَ رُوحُ اللهِ يُرَفْرِفُ عَلَى سَطْحِ الْمِيَاهِ،

(FYI, it's Gen 1:1,2, hat tip Bible Gateway)

Hi hon! Gorgeous pic! How are you doing? Sorry I haven't been by--we've been down with a cold. I see dear Claudia (AoW) is having surgery tomorrow, bless her heart.

"keeps things in perspective"

It certainly does. A lot of great images came from the Apollo missions. Hard to believe that it's almost been 40 years.

Beautiful picture!

What's the arabic say?

" 1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 Now the earth was [a] formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. "

That's a 'typo' except the transmission error occurs in the brain rather than the fingers:>D

Filthy obscene blasphemous image!

How dare you najis kaffirs publish an image that shows the earth as round, when the Holy Koran says it is flat.

But what's even worse about this fake photo is that it implies some filthy Judeo-Christian pig/monkey photographer was standing on the face of Allah himself.

It make me so angry I feel I could explode!

LOL! "Standing on the face of Allah"!!! Thanks for the comment!
