  Here is a question, if "not one of them is missing" how does the Org explain Super Nova's, the destruction of a star at the end of it's life cycle? Because by definition it is missing, I have never heard of any explanation from the Org to explain this contradiction.

  I think the expression is easily explained as really meaning "they are all accounted for". That doesn't have to imply that they all still exist and don't have their own lifecycle.

  In a similar way that saying you have accounted for all the fish in a pond doesn't mean none of them can ever die.

  The Bible says what it says, and doesn't say what it doesn't say.

  Unless you believe any of it has merit, then you've got your work cut out for you.

  This text is one of the lucky shots in the bible, If it were not for the initial moving energy (heat), the force of gravity of all that matter would not have been overcome to allow for the expansion, even inflationary of the universe. so, all is well and orbiting, and we are made of stardust of a succession of dying stars.we are not missing, because not one step was missing. Dynamic, orbital energy trumps gravity, most of the time.

  Of course their is no mention of Asteroids , Meteors , Meteorites , Comets , Black holes , Colliding Galaxies , Etc.Etc. ,in the Bible that just might point to a more chaotic Universe than what the Bible indicates.

  And we only have the tip of the iceberg so to speak about the Universe., if that.
