A point has no existence

True, but it has Being-in-the-world as GPS location.

Actually in a fluctuating - expanding universe...

The process that I described, if it were real, is what formed and maintains the fluctuating, expanding universe of imperfect circles.

That would depend on one's definition of "immediately." If the author really considers "immediately" to mean 300,000,000 years, that seems an immoderate immediate.

Schroeder's claim looks to me to be based upon Schopf's identification of cyanobacteria in 3.5 million-year-old Australian rock, a claim which is no longer widely accepted and which Schopf at least for a time withdrew. Most people now think these "fossils" are in fact carbon from geological processes. I believe the next-oldest (and non-controversial) fossils are quite a bit younger. Schroeder is thus making hay with "evidence" of very shaky status.

I once saw God in the lab, too. Inhaled too much polyvinylchloride while coating fossil specimens. I didn't wake up in my own saliva, but I had trouble keeping my feet on the floor.

"Friction? Once again the sheer power of kinetic energy is overlooked."

Yes, and for a geologist to forget about friction...
It's like a Texan forgetting the Alamo.

What if the world was created from the future running backwards but we're in a section that is running fast forward ... the bang never happened !

Your spirals (( circles )) would be going backward but the screen we are on (( time )) ... we would see them going forward !

The world is going to shrink - collapse - crash !

I think they are calling that "the big crush" to be followed by another big bang.

Wisdom-->Energy-->Mass-->Life-->Brain-->Mind-->Wisdom

Or as James Burke put it:

Submarine-->Sandwich-->Kitchen-->Mother-->Love-->Tennis-->Elbow-->Greece-->Rome-->Gladiator-->Trident-->Submarine
