So can we say that the Galactic center is 'gods' parents? If the Sun is God that is....it came from somewhere, it has beginning and will have a end. It will emanate its energy into another form just as though its emanation was energy from another form.
I'm going to sound like a broken record by the end of this, and I should have really placed this in the title, but my thoughts weren't completely formed by that point, but now I understand what it is I am trying to express:
The sun is the only thing you can actually point to that comes closest to God
Can you point to the Galactic center? No, you can only point to a representation of it on a piece of paper, which is just a drawing, not the actual galactic center. But you can actually point to the sun (okay, so you are technically pointing to the past since the light came from the past that is now traveling to us, but it is an easier center to point to than the galactic center).

This thread just got ridiculous IMO.
It's blatantly obvious that the Sun isn't 1 thing, and that it in fact relies on physical components of the rest of the universe to exist. It's an energy source, but it is not a source. It's merely a manifested tool. Just because science has not discovered life where there are no stars does not mean that there can only be life near a sun. With well over 200 billion suns in our Galaxy and over 100 billion galaxies in the universe, our sun has nothing special other than the fact it is our energy source. Call it a God if you want, but again there is no difference in any sun except size which makes all the other differences.
meaning the sun is OUR creator and preserver. the other stars do not do as much. So, how is it that science has not yet discovered life where there is no stars, but you assume there can be life with no stars? Don't you think you are basing your opinions on faith and not science, since you say science has not discovered it yet?

Using the logic utilised in the OP, wouldn't it be more accurate to say that Hydrogen is God?
Hydrogen is everywhere, it is what gives stars their energy.
hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant chemical element, constituting roughly 75 % of the Universe's elemental mass.[5] Stars in the main sequence are mainly composed of hydrogen in its plasma state. Naturally occurring elemental hydrogen is relatively rare on Earth.

It fits, doesn't it? Especially as God seems to be pretty absent from Earth, as does elemental Hydrogen.

The sun is not god, it's the law of god, it's an iluminator, the creator just works with it. It's light, things move straight into the light, anything, it's a rule. Dark is not evil, but you can do evil into the dark where no one can see you. You can take a walk into the dark under the weak light of the moon and relax or you can kill or rape someone.
Worship of the sun is not adviced.
I hope you do not worship the sun.

You are assuming an immaterial perspective, and if that were the case, why would you need to worship anything at all?
