How do we really know that there isn't already something different about the sun than all the other stars in the solar system? I'd be interested if this can be disproven.
Spectrographic analysis indicates what type a star is, and how far in the hydrogen (or other cycle) it is. Many very similar stars to the sun have been discovered. The fuel cycle of the sun is mainly from the nuclear fusion of hydrogen, a common process with other stars of this magnitude. There is nothing unique about it from a cosmological point of view. I think you mistyped "solar system", (instead of galaxy), the sun is of course the only star in the solar system.
How do we know that angles don't have the assignment to prevent the star from dying. I know this is out in left field but according to the bible we will never fully understand the creation of Jehovah.
Well, this is back to the old "God can do anything he wants" fallback when Watchtower doctrine contradicts the scientific facts. Some fundamentalists have told me they think the dinosaurs did not really exist, but that either Satan or God (depending on the source) put the fossils here on earth to fool the unbelievers. A JW circuit overseer once told me that dinosaurs were put here to provide petroleum and were killed off in the flood...he really thought that petroleum came from squished dinosaurs because Sinclair Oil has a brontosaurus on their logo. It might be worth remembering that the JWs for many years did actually teach that the bible creative days were 7,000 years old. This was a critical part of the false 1975 end of the world prophecy, as Freddy Franz thought that 1975 was the end of the 6,000 years since Adam, and that the last 1,000 years would be the thousand year reign of christ. When it didn't work, they pretty much let up on the unscientific 7,000 year days.
