The sun HAD to be larger. It's on fire! The fire that creates the heat from our sun is burning something. Gaseous mixture ratios have to be within a certain range to burn, thus a further argument for its shrinking to maintain density equilibrium. Similarly the newest era of missles that sucks out the O^2 from the atmosphere creates suction. Review the laws of thermodynamics and physics and then we can talk again.
Uh, the sun is NOT on fire. Review and then we can talk again.
Your information is a bit out of date: The Age of the Sun.
Wrong. Fire requires oxygen. The Sun's heat and light is the result of fusion (hydrogen now, helium later, heavier elements toward the end).
"The sun HAD to be larger. It's on fire! The fire that creates the heat from our sun is burning something."
You are too much my friend, you have some big nads saying this stuff in public, I have to give you that.
BTW, it's not burning, think of the sun as a permanent nuclear explosion.
[Laughter subsides....]
Q. What is the maximum amount by which a star can decrease its mass by conversion to energy that is radiated away?
A.
"They [stars] are continually radiating energy into space and thereby losing mass, and, as this energy is released in nuclear reactions in the interior of the star..... This mass loss is slight, and cannot exceed 1% of the star's mass in its entire life...."Source: "The Stars: Their Structure and Evolution," R. J. Tayler; Wykeham Publications (London) Ltd, 1974
I regret to inform you that your "hypothesis" about stellar structure and energy release mechanisms is in need of modification.

The sun is a nuclear reactor and being "on fire" shows very little understanding of nuclear reactions. However, the sun has clearly lost some mass since its formation, but as a percentage of its original, it is probably very small.
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA! That's the funniest line I've seen all day.

Haven't read the whole thread yet, but I trust you've been taking a proper pounding for this post. I'll risk the following and hope it hasn't been anticipated already. (It's been on many another thread, of course.)
Nuclear fusion makes stars to shine.It's so sweet and sentimental I have to fight back the tears as I type. Hope you like it.
Tropisms ma-ake the i-ivy twine!
Ray-ayleigh scattering makes skies so blue.
Testicular hormones are why I love you!
The weak force is the force that induces beta decay via interaction with neutrinos. A star uses the weak force to “burn” (nuclear fusion). Three processes we observe are proton-to proton fusion, helium fusion, and the carbon cycle. Here is an example of proton-to-proton fusion, which is the process our own sun uses: (two protons fuse -> via neutrino interaction one of the protons transmutes to a neutron to form deuterium -> combines with another proton to form a helium nuclei -> two helium nuclei fuse releasing alpha particles and two protons).
