Look at yahoo's Home page today, and you will see that science is just now saying that the sun sings. More proof that the bible is the authoratative and moral source in this world. What do you think?

As human knowledge progresses they are finding it more and more difficult to refute the bible. Amazing for a three thousand or more old book, wouldn't you say? When I read about the sun today, I thought about that verse, but you beat me to the question!

I think the "stars" were a symbol of angels in the passage you mention, but I do think the Bible is authoratative in both morals an science.

Theres actually alot of science that goes hand in hand with the bible just look at the big bang... yeah bet you didnt think i was going to bring that one out! The one thing that Christians get bashed with all the time and it still follows the 6 stages (days) of creation/intelligent design.

It's not music if you can't hear it. The frequency of the sound is below the threshold of human hearing. All they were saying is that the manner in which it is produced is similar to the manner in which sound waves are produced on a musical instrument.
And the Bible is hardly the source of morals for the whole world. The majority of people in the world aren't even christians.

Figurative Use. Stars are used in the Bible in a figurative sense and in metaphors or similes to represent persons, as in Joseph’s dream in which his parents were represented by the sun and moon, and his 11 brothers by 11 stars. (Ge 37:9, 10) Job 38:7 parallels “the morning stars” that joyfully cried out at earth’s founding with the angelic “sons of God.” The resurrected and exalted Jesus spoke of himself as “the bright morning star” and promised to give “the morning star” to his conquering followers, evidently indicating a sharing with him in his heavenly position and glory. (Re 22:16; 2:26, 28; compare 2Ti 2:12; Re 20:6.) The seven “angels” of the congregations, to whom written messages are delivered, are symbolized by seven stars in the right hand of Christ. (Re 1:16, 20; 2:1; 3:1) “The angel of the abyss” called Abaddon is also represented by a star.—Re 9:1, 11
These stars that joyfully cried out were obviously angels expressing emotions at the beauty of the newly created earth.
I personally though did find the article on the sun producing "music" very interesting.

The Bible is not "the authoritative and moral source in this world"...not by a LONG shot. The sun emits sound, just as it emits light and heat, but it doesn't sing.
