The Expansion of the Universe

Then God commanded, “Let lights appear in the sky to separate day from night and to show the time when days, years, and religious festivals begin; they will shine in the sky to give light to the earth”—and it was done.

(Genesis 1:14-15) Good News Translation

The expansion of the universe isn’t a testable hypothesis so it’s not scientific. The theory is accepted because it compliments the mainstream science narrative of godless existence (SciPop).

The notion that the universe is expanding is appealing to SciPop because, by invoking it, it’s theoretically possible to use measurements of redshift to calculate how long ago the universe was hot and dense right after the Big Bang.

We all have the same evidence. Our choice of paradigm determines what we think it’s evidence of.

The calculation has been deliberately fudged (using the Hubble constant) to accommodate THE NARRATIVE (add up the time necessary for 1) biological evolution 2) planet formation and 3) the origin of the universe, to get the magic 13.8 by number) so peer review decided that it proves the theory. There are so many problems with this approach that it’s amazing.

1. None of it is testable so, technically, its not science,
   • Peer review says:
     • “that’s irrelevant, we like it, please proceed.”
2. Hubble concluded that redshift wasn’t an indication of recession speed,
   • redshift may be due to an unknown phenomenon,
     • possibly energy loss as light travel through space.
   • Peer review says:
     • “shut up Hubble.”
3. If the distribution of redshifted stars is even in every direction that we look,
   • then the Earth is at the center,
     • Earth is the center of the observable universe,
   • Peer review says:
     • “what are you, an ignorant home-schooled knuckle-dragging moron*?”
     • *a euphemism for Christian

Faith is believing in something that you can’t see, because of evidence.

– Faith, definition

Here’s an article by Dr. Robert Sungenis which makes it very clear that although Hubble eventually concluded that the universe isn’t expanding, by then the scientific community was so in love with the idea that it had been inextricably woven into THE NARRATIVE so there was nothing he could do to stop it.
