Is Believing Seeing

Which do you think is the stronger position: Seeing is believing or Believing is Seeing? It’s all about perception. I remember getting e-mails screaming out from the subject field, “EYE OF GOD!” What is your first reaction to this picture? It was taken by the Hubble Space Telescope and the Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona. It is called NGC 7293, The Helix Nebula, also called the “Eye of God”.
If you think you’re looking at God you may feel differently that you would if you think you are looking at a dying star, which, by the way, NASA suggests might be what our sun might look like one day.
