Plasma physicist have thoroughly discredited dark matter, dark energy and the Big Bang, The repulsive electrostatic force between two protons is 36 orders of magnitude greater than gravitational attraction. I live in a plasma universe, which has more than enough energy to describe all the observed phenomena without the need (as Jim Peebles admitted) to Fabricate Ad hoc Inventions Repeatedly Invoked in Efforts to Defend Untenable Scientific Theories (FAIRIE DUST).
@selfenten: I know a couple. The priest (has a roman collar on) in the beginning is the since retired director of the Vatican Observatory, George Coyne SJ. The young guy talking about dark energy is Dr. "J" Joe Liska.
@inventorr77: I know this is old, but in fact astronomers do see blue shifts. It was the premier way to find extra-terrestrial planets. They look for a star which shows alternating red and blue shifts, and indicates the star is counterbalancing a planet around their common center of gravity.
The stars in our galaxy show no preferential shift; the talk of red shifts occur when viewing other galaxies; indeed, galaxies outside our local group, where spatial expansion > gravity's force.
@elklkx: If you really want to know, look up and listen to Lawrence Krauss' lecture "The Universe from Nothing" on YouTube. The universe only has a limit is the geometry is closed; Krauss explores what that means and what the evidence is.
@KOTP10142: Good, god, it's not anything that anyone but a nut would call an incredible rate. It is a rate such that our galaxy will be the only one visible after 100 billion years, 7 times the age of the universe. The rest of your posting is rubbish. There is no limit, it will never stop expanding (unless we happen to be living in a closed geometry, which is very unlikely), time will not reverse, and the universe as we know it won't end, because we DO know it.
Catholic faith is true.Read Fr Corapi, John Paul II Theology of The Body. God is Creator of all universe. BUT God is also our Saviour.Very important difference!He created us without asking us, BUT He wants to ask everybody:"Do you want me to take you to Heaven?".The point is you must give an answer,you can't avoid to give the answer. Your freedom is to make the choice:Yes or No.In moment of your death you will have to make your mind for eternity.Doitnow!Now No abortion.NowNoHell.Usereason,faith
