Implications of An Expanding Universe
Phillip Adams desire to be honest / his sense of adventure/ prepared to be Not Politically Correct can make him compelling viewing (egABCdrum last week where he suggested only 1000 people were the backbone of the Labor party ) .
He wants us to abandon the idea of God as a force with no force .
As a scientist its clear he doesn't understand forces and how little we really know about them.
That he should, by mere choice of words and ideas, find himself increasingly alone in a expanding universe is completely rational.
I have found it far more rewarding, over many many decades , as far as adventure goes, to seek to appreciate the wonder of my companions in the periodic table and the idea of a fellow traveller who shares the space in a powerful way .
As a result I avoid those whose preoccupation and delimitation is to try and occupy the space with their view of how it all works .

“The only reason for time is so that everything doesn’t happen at once.”
Albert Einstein, quoted in The Daily Telegraph (London)
Even in 2012 Einstein still sets the scene for a sound view of space . Albert didn't make the subject easier to understand , but those who try to say what it all means are a lethal weapon against the mind - a mind blowing place. Just to show you I come to space questions from all directions here is a bit of balance from a rank outsider.
“You can’t depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus.”
Mark Twain, quoted in The Advertiser
