An amazing story

As a small child I watched the story unfold of the moon landing. It was a great wonder for a kid back then. it is sad to see how people today want to marginalize the event claiming that it was a fake, a studio set and nothing more, or to note how Russia put the first woman, the first black, and the first Asian in space but our moon landing was a non-event.
I just got done reading the article, What NASA kept quit about the moon landing. Expecting some tail of a search for extra terrestrial life, or of a near failure, I was surprised to learn that Buzz Aldrin, a devout Presbyterian Elder had the first food consumed on another planet, and it was Communion, the  Body and blood of Christ.
Maybe that is why we won the race,because one man among many put GOD ahead of all else. That simple act could have cost him greatly. Even then anti-theism was rearing its evil head.
