In our 34th episode of “Men Who Understood the Times,” we discuss “Can Christians colonize spaces outside the Earth?” 1. What is the purpose of exploration (oceans, American West, North Pole, moon, space, etc.); 2. Does “fill the earth and subdue it” include the moon, Mars, and beyond; 3. Purpose of space colonization – earth is fragile, extinction event, benefit to society, or “it’s there”; 4. Could the colonization of Mars and moon stations become like the Tower of Babel; 5. What might a Christian Church on the moon look like; 6. Biblical themes in space movies like “The Martian,” “Project Hail Mary,” “Apollo 13”, etc.
God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the sky, and over every living thing that moves on the earth” (Genesis 1:28).
