1. Nice video
   My only things is that, well, the first verse you used of the Bible, Deuteronomy 4:19, can be quoted some different ways, depending on the version of the bible you read:

   NASB: “And [beware] not to lift up your eyes to heaven and see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, and be drawn away and worship them and serve them, those which the LORD your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven. (NASB ©1995)

   GWT: Don’t let yourselves be tempted to worship and serve what you see in the sky-the sun, the moon, the stars, or anything else. The LORD your God has given them to all people everywhere. (GOD’S WORD®)

   As you can see it’s says to NOT look up, but then:

   KJV: And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.

   ASV: and lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the host of heaven, thou be drawn away and worship them, and serve them, which Jehovah thy God hath allotted unto all the peoples under the whole heaven.

   So I don’t think it’s good verse to use to support the argument of Sun Worship as a religion, but then again one could make the argument that it should be more the part in it?

   Just an observation, not an argument.

2. O.k.. But how do you explain the earlier versions of the bible that say to look up and worship the stars and so forth? Did it become unpopular thus was changed?
