Some things really work better in other environments, y'know? Some ideas don't match up with high school or even college forensics.
(BTW I half agree and half disagree with you on the universe thing. All the phenomena suggest expansion. But if universe [there's that pseky "one" again] means what it seems to mean, how good there be any thing, not IN the universe. [Space, BTW, may not be a thing.])
If your ignorance is truly invincible, then what are we doing here?
Good question. Dunno. But then if I can make one mad dog serene it will all have been worth it.
