I remember it so well. The astronauts had returned from their first landing on the moon (for the first time man on the moon). President Nixon had flown to the recovery aircraft carrier to welcome the moon men who had been isolated for fear of contamination. But President Nixon said, “This (man on the moon) is the greatest event since creation.” I thought, what about the resurrection? Where in the scheme of things —historical and a-historical—does the resurrection of Jesus from the dead come in? To me with a Bible in hand, it seems the important events are: creation, resurrection, and the third most important event has not happened yet.
