…Dude, this fuckin' shit, again? Another generational 'end of the world' hysteria 'event' and every dumbfuck asshole has to perpetuate the script.
…Because it's too complicated for the smooth brain to comprehend the 'gods' as the planets/constellations, eventually drifting apart over the course of thousands of years. Each configuration recorded in symbolism. If the Earth has been constantly terraformed, why not the equivalent in the skies? It's the anthropomorphic shaping of these 'forces' taken grossly out of context, taken too literal that has gotten humanity chasing it's goddamn tail. Apply the astronomical context to ANY myth/legend/et cetera and patterns emerge. Humanity around the globe witnessed the same activity in the celestial theater (with exception to southern and northern hemisphere POVs, such as objects below the horizon, and/or seasonal constellations & 'formations').
