[QUOTE="sl1000794, post: 340455, member: 6974"] Nobody in our time arranged the stars. The stars particular arrangement from our point of view is happenstance from millions of years ago. In the early part of man's existance some people gave star clusters names and outlined which stars were included in each cluster. Your saying that the group of stars in Orion is a knife or "dick" is meaningless. For centuries those stars have been synoymous with a sword. After reading these posts and going back and researching this, it is called Orion's Belt and it goes around where his waist is so that makes sense. Cannot be even thought of as his dick or his sword.
