    Is this a realistic question, or simply a religiously philosophical question?

    Last week their photo was captain Picard, this week something else, next week who knows. The OP has over 7 pages of posts they have started. Click on their user name. 

    There are really only a small number of people that read and respond to these posts, and once they see the pattern, these posts will get less and less eyes on them and responses.

    I disagree. It can only get better over time, particularly with the right people.

    If the latter (a religiously philosophical question), then the reply is simple:  Been there.  Done that, as follows:

     

    "And Jacob went out from Beer-sheba, and went toward Haran. And he lighted upon the place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep. And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven; and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it. And, behold, the LORD stood beside him, and said: 'I am the LORD, the God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac. The land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed. And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. And in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed. And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee whithersoever thou goest, and will bring thee back into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.' And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said: 'Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not.' And he was afraid, and said: 'How full of awe is this place! this is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.' And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it. And he called the name of that place Beth-el, but the name of the city was Luz at the first."

    — Genesis 28:10–19[1]

    Before the Seas were bent Middle-earth had a Firmament 

     

    Some people mistakenly believe that the Firmament is still there and that the Powers That Be are trying to blow a hole in the Firmament with nuclear blasts.
