That is not the logic I'm using at all, Yoda. The Bible clearly distinguished between the sun and stars. The Sun is not a name for our star like Lassie is the name of a dog. According to the Bible, the sun is different from the stars, had a different beginning, and will endure forever. Stars, on the other hand, will fall from the heavens in the future.

Wrong, science says you are.
Logic, you are not at all using. Clear, this is.
On your head, you must have fallen.
You know, while it's not fair to assume they're all astronomic agoraphobics, it's funny as hell when you find a few.
I just wonder what would happen... what do you suppose one of these types would say if you showed them a spectroscope readout of the sun and a few other main sequence stars of similar properties?
So... Shooting stars obviously are STARS. Stars are no bigger than your fist, in reality.
Then how come Yoda can live on one? This person cleary accepts his existance... I'm glad that Yoda is on our side, though.
A path to the dumb side, the Bible seems to be.
(Who else got an image of Yoda lightsaber battling Darth Vader with a crucifix and white cape who turned out to be Jesus?)

The fact that the Bible thinks our sun is unique is just one clue that it's not written by people who knew much.
Some cultures at that time already separated our planets as 'not suns' and knew some of those points of light were just farther away.
The Bible compilers were either just uneducated or were writting a fairy tale combined from older fables. I actually think it's the latter as the Grimm brothers did the same thing many years later and those old european tales also interconnected sometimes and repeated similar themes.
Had the Grimms also added old religions we would have had a Pagan Bible.
The link now leads to a completely different post :(
As for the submitted text: well, I guess the Earth is not a name for our planet either.
The sun will eventually run out of fuel. The stars are mearly other suns, far away, and.. wait, why am I telling you this? Have you even taken 3rd grade astronomy?
Last time I checked, our sun was rather insignificant when compared to the other stars in the universe.
When taken into account that I am a humanist/freight forwarder, and know very little about the facts of the universe, I still seem to be a paragon of astronomy knowledge, compared to little Rebornempowered here.
And that, Rebornempowered, is why you fail.
... That line did go like that in the movie, right?
Fail, you have.
DIAF, you should.
I love the internet. People talk seriously to Yoda.
Also, I thought it was kind of cool when the stars fell and then kind of stood around in a clump giving Aslan a big, dark shadow to banish the fallen into after tearing out their souls, but Narnia was a very small universe. Different cosmology, Reborn.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
