You could have a BA, AA and any other degree but it isn't going to change most people's opinion on this matter.

I'm very much anit-evolution, and im afraid to tell you that the sun is explanding not contracting...its going through a 3 phase right now...after this phase it will become a red giant.....then become a white dawarf...
use a tele ...you can see it in other stars.

biblical side, you can look where it say in the bible that God will not loosen the band of oryan.... because those stars will not seperate..even secular models prove this....but all other stars are explanding...not only in size...but in over all space

Very glad to hear of your superior english classes. Did you not take them?
You got us with that "explanding stars in the band of oryan" bit. Totally. I guess I have to go to church again, and I'll definitely check out where it say that in the bible.
You have now told us to look at other stars to see where ours will be going. How can you even attempt to tell me that I should look at other stars to see how the sun will change, but COMPLETELY DISREGARD other stars' origins? Why should I believe that stars follow similar life cycles if we haven't been around long enough to see them change? If we disregard stars being born of nebulae, a process that would obviously put our solar system at a bit
more than the 5-10 thousand years that you have spent so much time and effort calculating, surely we can't trust the other clues the stars give us about our own's future path.

The first thing to note is that, in certain aspects, the stars seem to vary a great deal among themselves. Certain of them, the ‘red giants’, are of colossal dimensions, their diameter exceeding 450 times that of the Sun (if the sun were as large as they it would extend beyond Earth, Jupiter and Saturn as far as Uranus!) Others, the ‘white dwarfs’, are smaller than the earth; and still others, the most numerous category, closely resemble the sun both in their dimensions and their yellow colour. We find similar contrasts of brilliance and temperature. One star may be the equivalent of 300,000 suns in luminosity, whereas another may amount to only a fifty-thousandth part of it (as great a difference, the astronomer Sir James Jeans observed, as there is between a lighthouse and a glow-worm). These, of course, are extreme cases. In the matter of surface-temperature, if the Sun and the majority of stars are round about 6,000˚ Centigrade (three times the temperature of an electric arc) there are some of 11,000˚ (Sirius) and even of 23,000˚; and on the other hand there are some as low as 3,500˚ (the red giants).
This is what i found-
so why would a "white dwarf be the last stage in the suns transfermation. In this article it says that a "white dwarf" is smaller then the sun?

Yes, as stars burn their fuel they change states/temperatures/sizes, and follow a general progression, depending on size, beginning with a cloud of condensing gases (nebula) and ending in a number of outcomes (supernovas, black holes, etc). Except ours didn't start as a nebula, I guess. That's what Doctor Divinity is telling us.
Except, and do I ever have to admit my own childishness here, Pensacola Christian College DOES NOT OFFER A DOCTORATE OF DIVINITY
.

Not only is there no info on it on their web site, but I gave the seminary a quick call. You're full of it.
Your bluff has been called, kid. Give it up.

No, it doesn't. Straight from the college itself.
http://pts.pcci.edu/Overview.html
But I didn't go by that. I called. I talked to someone. They thought it strange that I was told they offered a doctorate of divinity.
No doctorate.
I think I shall go smoke a cigarrette. This is better than ---.

yes, they do, but a yellow dwarf doesn't change into a red giant, and then to a white whatever... that's the classification of the star...

I dont think hes refering to the star anymore.
