“. . . There is a great mystery of time on display for us at every moment. The past is present in many ways. And our past is ‘out there’ on display and still present as well. If there is any one on a planet near Rigel and they look back through a telescope to earth, say to France, they do not see us now, they see Joan of Arc and other events of the 14th Century taking place. The light of our ‘today’ will not reach Rigel for 600 years . . . .”
In a recent commentary, Monsignor Charles Pope (pastor of Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian Parish, Washington, DC) reflected on the mystery of time.
