Offbeat gold theory

Gold has always been an object of desire since it was first discovered, as it is of beautiful color and possesses a brilliance that is unparalleled. I was curious as to where gold came from so I did a little research and found out that the only time gold is ever “created” is during the death of a star, which is a galaxy-rippling event. What happens when a star dies is it sends off huge amounts of subatomic partials(protons, neutrons, electrons) that when sailing through the vacuum of space condense into atoms, mostly iron as it is the simplest configuration, but some gold is formed in this process in the same way. The gold that is then sailing through space eventually collides with another celestial body, for sake of simplicity lets just say earth. Being as I consider stars to be the “gods” of the universe I tried to elaborate more symbolically on this process.

So gold essentially is a gift from the heavens that exists only in finite quantities, and its limited supply then causes a desire for or a greed complex to arise. So we spend millions of man-hours just to dig it up this basically useless metal, just because it exists in finite quantities, fueled by ones desire to possess more than the next. The U.S. government in fact likes gold so much they have a hoard of over 147 million ounces of the stuff.

So then I come back to gold being a gift, in that it was given to us, but for what purpose. I have many off beat theories and could spend days explaining them but basically I see it as a test. The bible tells us to not love earthly treasures, like gold for example. So gold exists as a test in our understanding of the grand scheme, wealth in this plane will produce no fruit after death. So it is only those who see the underlying latticework abstain from greed, as those less informed see it as something they want or need because others do as well, just cogs in a redundant machine.

I think that about as far as I need to go in explaining this idea, infer what you will.
