Austra wrote: No, that's not what I'm asserting at all. I'm not discounting the possibility that constellations were based on things that ancient people considered to be gods. I'm unconvinced that this is the case, seeing as there is just as much evidence for this scenario as there is for your God, however it is a possibility.
Constellations had a beginning austra! Things that began to exist as part of the universe are not at all the cause of the universe. This is elementary level stuff man! Come on!
You have the burden of proof Austra. Let's hear it!

You mean there are plausible claims other than your false dichotomy!
We have the stories as they were written by humans not stars. the bible was written by humans under the inspration of the one and only true living God.
Stories like the Bible which was also written by humans.
