→Questions on Age
In the source material that is given as evidence that the ''measurable'' age of the universe may not truly reflect the ''actual'' age of the universe, it is stated that because clocks run faster at the top of tall buildings, this is evidence of time running faster because of the decreased effect of gravity. However, I cannot understand how the effect of gravity on a human instrument of measurement can be said to be affecting the actual time constant. That is; how do we know that it is not only our instruments which are affected by gravity, but the fabric of time itself? I find this article very interesting, though there are one or two more problems I have with it, I might need to read the book before I bring them up --[[User:Entheogenicorder|Entheogenicorder]] 16:59, 5 August 2008 (BST)

==Origin of the universe==
The scientific theory on the origin of the universe isn't that it "erupted from nothing", but that a quantum singularity burst outwards because of an explosion created from the immense pressure and heat. I've changed the article, but the citation is still something that twists the idea into something it isn't.
