The problem as I see it, is some of the shit listed in the OP, was posted in science, and yet it took 4 pages before someone woke up to what was obvious on page 1.
We have numerous alternative hypothesis that is also posted in science and or astronomy.
I've got nothing against the religion or other forums, but as we also know these forums are an opportunity for any Tom, Dick and Harry....or even constant theorist, chinglu and Farsight to post any non accepted mainstream science in science, and any crazy alternative crap that constant theorist did with his light/dark nonsense that was obviously pseudo bound, although it again took a number of pages before someone woke up..
Yeah, and while I'm wanting to get an education, and Billy T is preaching otherwise from my textbooks, I'm not allowed to get annoyed.

Havn't really had too much to do with Billy in my time, except in two current threads in regards to time, and in which he does seem to have an approach and reasoning not held strictly by mainstream.
And his method at times in pushing that position did appear to be rather emotional at times, not so much where I am concerned...as I'm big enough and ugly enough to take all anyone sees fit to throw at me on the chin.
I do understand your concern and your reason for being upset from one particular post to you which was below the belly and uncalled for.
The essence in what I'm trying to say, is that the accepted scientific view and theory on any particular issue will in most cases be supported by those that are here to ensure the scientific methodology does take pride of place.
The only thing Billy has going for him in regards to his opinion on time, is that there is a lot still to be learned and although logic and common sense do support its existence and reality 100%, there is still a deep unknown reality to it, that gets very philosophical...something which I personally do try and avoid.
In essence, I think its pretty clear who those are that stand by science and the accepted methodology, and the theories that that same methodology are responsible for, and the over-riding fact that as scientific theories continue to align with new observations and make successful predictions, the more certain they become.
That's not to say, that some will not be modified.....A future QGT for example, will almost certainly encompass the BB as it is, and just have the precision to extend beyond presently accepted BB theories.
So take notice of those few who go with the common sense, logical approach and the scientific method......
Refute to the best of your ability the rather weird take others like Farsight have on cosmology.
Like you, I'm here to learn, and certainly won't be dictated to by those with delusions of grandeur and Inflated egos that claim to rewrite 20th/21st century cosmology.
Don't let them get away with anything.
You seem to be doing OK from where I'm sitting anyway.
