THE STAR

The article "the star" to me was kind of confusing. I didnt really put everything together or understand it until the end. Through out the article i didnt grasp the fact that he was a preist and also an austronomer. I kind of figured that he was religiouse towards the end when he was asking how could god do this to a planet and destroy everybody and nobody survived. But then he also said god doesnt have to explain himself to man. It was also another clue when he kept on saying father. Basicalle what i comprehended from the story was that there was a planet and it exploded because the sun bursted, and out of all the suns how come god choosed this one. There were no survivors however there were some visual records and a machine to use to see them.
