Min educate yourself go read the article. I thought you were a researcher guess I was wrong. Keppler took his math and tried to find the star but was using the wrong date for Herrods death. For him to do all that math by hand showed his dedication to God. Even though he never found the star his faith never waned.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
