→Eternal Universe?
:That used to a common "competitor" for the big bang theory - that the universe had been here, pretty much the way it is now, forever. Did anyone realize the universe is an episode of Dr. Who? "John Hartnett theorizes that the Earth was trapped in a time-dilation field, caused by an extremely powerful gravitational field, during the first few days of creation. What appeared to be days on Earth would have been billions of years to the rest of the universe." Some people also hold to the theory that the "universe" goes through cycles of explosion, expansion, contraction to a singularity, repeat. I'm not sure how widely held these possibilities are any more. [[User:Human|Human]] 20:07, 9 May 2007 (EDT)

I'm a physics student and I've never heard of an astronomer who believes in an infinitely old universe (I could debunk that theory within 2 minutes anyway), so I think this was someone's (uhum User:Conservative's uhum) attempt to attack evolution and mainstream science in general.
