As far-fetched as it may seem that the angelic host visited Bethlehem on the night of Jesus birth riding on a section of the brightly shining crystalline firmament, we shouldn't be surprised.
The Star of Bethlehem
Who is the Sun?
The sun goest forth in his might? The song of Deborah speaks of the sun as if he's a person, a sentient being. Who are we to say he isn't?
Outer Darkness
Outer darkness is only referred to three times in scripture, but by using context we can establish what and where it is. The easiest thing to take for context is the gnashing of teeth, which occurs nine times in the Bible.

The last physical phenomena of world-wide, or region-wide, significance in the recent epoch is the most famous one of all, the star of Bethlehem. It has a direct connection to our doctrine of the firmament.

The planet Venus may have been the source of some of the plagues of the Exodus: rivers and streams turning into blood, a rain of hail mingled with fire, and impenetrable darkness where people couldn't see their hands in front of their faces.

The traditional battle lines of science vs. faith is a false dichotomy. Popular science (SciPop) can’t be the opposite of faith because SciPop requires faith.
Effect and Cause
Why are planetary orbits elliptical? We've considered this as an example of how to understand frame of reference, but Newton supposedly solved this problem mathematically in Principia Mathematica:
Are We Breaking the Speed Limit?
The Bible describes the Sun either standing still or going backwards so it seems appropriate to examine the account of creation to see if the scripture could actually accommodate a Geocentrospheric system.
The Stars Shall Fall to Earth
Jesus Christ, God in human form, prophesied about a time in the future when the stars fall out of the sky and impact the Earth. The express purpose of popular science (SciPop) is to make this seem impossible.
