“Can’t even imagine where you grabbed that quirky thought from! - The article strongly affirms conditions that support both special creation, and the predicted configuration of a finite, bounded universe, all of which are consistent with a universe that expanded from a center at our approximate location.”
—Where is there anything in the article about a finite, bounded universe? It’s just talking about how we find relatively fewer planets where we find relatively little material for planets to form. This is, of course, what we’d expect if planets indeed formed from such material, i.e. the nebular hypothesis. How is that a “quirky thought”? Why, under special creation, should there be any relationship between the location of planets and the location for building material for planets if planets formed ex nihilo? And how is the observation that the outer regions of galaxies have relatively little metals got anything to do with whether the universe expanded from a center near us?
If you’re referring to “The Privileged Planet”, I haven’t seen that - I’m just commenting on the article posted.
You sound just like Obama telling us there are no “death panels” in Obamacare!
“Where is there anything in the article about a finite, bounded universe?”
Conditions! Exactly what a finite, bounded universe should look like. Reality always confirms the young creation.
