Mrs. Singer: He's been depressed. All of a sudden, he can't do anything.
Doctor: Why are you depressed, Alvy?
Mrs. Singer: Tell Dr. Flicker. [To the doctor] It's something he read.
Doctor: Something he read, huh?
Alvy: The universe is expanding...Well, the universe is everything, and if it's expanding, some day it will break apart and that will be the end of everything.
Mrs. Singer: What is that your business?! [To the doctor] He stopped doing his homework.
Alvy: What's the point?
Mrs. Singer: What has the universe got to do with it? You're here in Brooklyn. Brooklyn is not expanding!
Doctor: It won't be expanding for billions of years, yet Alvy. And we've got to try to enjoy ourselves while we're here, huh, huh? Ha, ha, ha.

And yet, they are absolutely sure that man-made climate change is a “thing”.

This cant be the case. If goes against the consensus and settled science.

The universe is just trying to run away from Soroznazi, hilLIARy, peLousy, Obama, and the Democrap anti-American anti- Christian, anti-Jew congresscritters. Or at least put as much distance between them as possible.

Well, technically there is nothing outside the universe for it to expand into. As far as physics is concerned, really we can treat anything beyond the Hubble distance as if it doesn’t exist either, since it can’t affect us.
Perhaps the universe is not expanding at all, but all the matter inside the universe is shrinking...

The accelerating universe expansion is a YUGE argument for a Creator.
Anybody remember learning about the oscillating universe in school? The idea was that the big bang happens infinite times, matter and energy are always slung way out (universe expanding), the expansion slows from gravitational attraction and eventually reverses, then when all the matter and energy are all in one point again another big bang happens. Over & over & over.
That was the atheists explanation to science geek Christians when the Christians pointed out that a giant explosion would create so much chaos for a universe that seems to be so ordered like it was tailor made for advanced life to exist somewhere. Atheists: Well, then it must happen infinite times so that it's just right at least once.
Then the Hubble telescope was made and showed the universe's expansion is accelerating, not slowing down. Like the big bang was a one time event, not infinite times. Thus, the chaotic event just happened to sling out all matter and redefine physics just right -- the one time it happened.
