What is the moon's true origin story?

Have you ever wondered how the moon came to be, and how it was created?

Aristotle, grand Spirit, explains―Now when an atom within the composition of your earth has once yielded up its spirit, it cannot be replenished on the earth―it is worthless and drifts about at the mercy of a higher law―it has lost its power of attraction, and of being attracted, the atmosphere takes it up, carries, and thrusts it out beyond its limit. Now there are countless millions of these atoms rising continually and when they get beyond the atmosphere, they crowd and push each other until they lie in a helpless mass or belt or in two or three belts, as one can see by looking at the planet Jupiter.

There is a law by which these atoms are replenished or revivified and spiritual essence put into them. These worthless atoms must be replenished in some way. All the other atoms in space are filled with spirit―they cannot be robbed―each atom has only enough for itself and they repulse the worthless ones.

How dost thou suppose these atoms become revivified or again filled with spirit?

Comets are not the nucleus of other worlds, as many suppose, but torches―great magnetic torches―vast oceans of pure spiritual essence devoid of matter. They circle and sweep around among the planets and revivify every worthless atom with which they come in contact. 

Now when these atoms have again received the spiritual essence, they have the power of attracting, and of being attracted. Thus, they weld themselves together in the form of a ring, such as thou wilt observe around the planet Saturn. 

After this has taken place a great many times, the ring becomes very large and heavy, and the earth by its motion is constantly repulsing and throwing it off. It at length breaks in pieces. Then by its own inherent power of attraction, it draws itself together at its central point, and its surface is all in great yawning chasms, fissures and mountains, but it is soft, as the apple before mentioned, yet it has become an independent orb and commences its own revolutions.

The earth holds it at the proper distance, and there rolls your moon. 

The earth is young, she has but one moon, yet. Jupiter is older, he has four. Thus, the planets go on until they have cast off seven. By this time they have yielded up their entire spirit and they then have seven moons and seven spiritual spheres.

When the earths have accomplished this, the remnant of matter, which is left broken and robbed in part of its spirit falls in pieces, as one can see by looking at the asteroids. These pieces in their turn fall in pieces and drop as meteors into some other planet.

The asteroids are gradually dropping in pieces in this way, and sending meteors and meteoric showers on to the earth.
