"If dark energy were the size that theories predict, the universe would have expanded with such a fantastic velocity that it would have prevented the existence of everything we know in our cosmos."

If only the evolutionary sciences were as honest as astrophysics in acknowledging areas where they don't have a clue.

Meanwhile, that expansion either occurred in the past or continues to occur is not too much of a surprise...

Isaiah 44:24 - Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;

Isaiah 45:12 - I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.

Isaiah 51:13 - And forgettest the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?

Why do I suspect that if the 1998 observations had shown the expansion of the universe slowing down, you'd have a Bible verse or two predicting that? If the observations had shown a contraction, that would have been OK too. There's something in there, somewhere.

Not to someone who can say that, no matter what happens either way, that his book of vague sayings covers it all.
