Ancient and [[medieval]] cosmologists were common, usually oriented around a world view of a stationary, [[flat earth]] as the center of the universe.  [[Aristarchus]] understood that the [[earth]] was spherical and circled the [[sun]].  With the increasing sophistication of observing techniques and equipment, a more modern understanding of the universe emerged.

Much of modern cosmology is [[atheism|atheistic]],<ref>http://www.atheists.org/flash.line/atheism1.htm</ref> which rejects [[God]] as explanations for the existence of the universe. Instead it uses theories such as [[Counterexamples to Relativity|relativity]] and the [[Big Bang theory]] based on the recession of [[galaxies]] shown by [[Red Shift]].[[atheism|Atheistic]] cosmology occurs in a [[Counterexamples to an Old Earth|time frame]] which predates that suggested by creation scientists of approximately 6000 years. Some [[Secular Science|secular scientists]] also advocate the [[Steady state theory]], though this is is very small in comparison. Some also suggest a cyclic universe of expansion followed by contraction, repeating to infinity.

Some also suggest a cyclic universe of expansion followed by contraction, repeating to infinity. This approach has no need for a supernatural creator ([[God]]) and avoids the problem of [[creation]]. A small number believe that the [[universe]] is in fact a highly advanced computer simulation.

People are increasingly embracing the [[logic]] of [[creation science]] enabling them to distinguish real science from atheistic secular junk science.
