Horror of a privileged position leads to prejudice, violation of the [[Socratic principle]], damning the alternatives, and clinging to the biased a priori assumptions such as those of ''uniformity'' and ''homogeneity'' of the universe. Consequently, atheistic cosmologists assert that ''"there must be no favoured location in the universe, no centre, no boundary; all must see the universe alike"''. In order to ensure this situation, they postulate spatial isotropy and spatial homogeneity, which is way of stating that the universe must be pretty much alike everywhere and in all directions. In their reasoning, they use [[circular argument]] hence claim that a favoured position is intolerable because it represents a discrepancy with the theory that postulates homogeneity. Then, in order to restore homogeneity, and "to escape the horror of a unique position", the departures from uniformity, which are introduced by the recession factors, must be from their perspective compensated by the second term in the Einstein's field equations representing effects of [[spatial curvature]].
