The answers are right in front of you in the book called the Bible. Because you don't like what it says you want to use your pea brain to try and understand an unfathomable God. This is typical of those who think they can find answers beyond what God has told us. In regards to your stars scenario. God put the stars, the sun and the moon in the sky and said "Let there be light". And there was light. What's so difficult about that? Oh yeah, you are a librarian who can't accept absolute truth. You believe that God has put mysteries here for intelligent beings, like librarians, to uncover. Here's to your dead end searches that just leave you frustrated and asking more and more questions.

But if God is unfathomable to our pea-brains, then what makes you think your concept of God, his personality, and his expectations for us (if any) are at all accurate? Even if the Bible was as exact a copy of God's Own Words as the Quran is supposed to be, since God's qualities & thoughts are unfathomable to you or I, what makes you think you could begin to understand anything about God accurately by reading it?

Are you in the habit of trusting all your thoughts, hopes, & expectations for the future on people who are unfathomable to you? Why ever would an unfathomable person be emotionally compelling to you?

John 8:31-32 "Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, "If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."

I know the truth. It is sad that so many deny the truth to their own destruction.
