What the fuck are you talking about? In book of Genesis stars during the making are only mentioned "he made the stars also." Then the next time stars are mentioned in book of Genesis is when god is saying to Abram "Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them" and Abram apparently counted them because the later verse goes "And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness."
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
