...the same thing is happening in the field of Evo-Cosmology. Needless to say, God-honoring creation scientists have been predicting this outcome on both fronts for some time now. For God's creation, which is sustained by His holy Word, resists evo-materialist explanations. As such, sooner or later, their vain man-centered descriptions of His wondrous creation will be forced to bow to His WORD:
Isaiah 55:8 For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways, declares the LORD. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways And My thoughts than your thoughts. 10 For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, And do not return there without watering the earth And making it bear and sprout, And furnishing seed to the sower and bread to the eater; 11 So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.
The Scientific American article above is of course just the beginning. As can be readily seen from the article, the evo-cosmologists are still committed to finding ways to paper-over the special home that God has created for us. But rest assured, the more they find out about our cosmic neigborhood, the more they will be forced to declare that we do indeed live in a very, very special place. It doesn't matter where the natural mind turns, in the end every aspect of creation sings HIS praises, so that when that final day comes, even those who specialize in cosmology will be without excuse:
"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse."--Romans 1:20
If you are interested in finding a God-honoring cosmology, you might want to start here.

“Or does Earth occupy a very unusual place in the universe?”
Yes, Earth does occupy a very special place in the universe. If you’re curious, there is a DVD called, “The Priviledged Planet”
According to this DVD, Earth’s placement is unique and just a few degrees here or there, and we would look like Mars instead. It’s jaw-dropping to watch this video and realize how blessed we are.
I have always believed that God made planet Earth on purpose for humans to live, and it’s placement in the universe was no accident.
*Quark*. Excuse me.
Srsly, tho. When (or if) I get to heaven......I have sooooooooo many questions to ask Him...and, quite frankly, I’m looking VERY forward to it.
btt
With faith, no reach is too far.
There you go again, quoting real scientists.

Your’re not being fair to dark matter. Dark matter is like a cleaning deposit on a rental apartment. A deposit exists because it’s made but once made it cannot ever be seen.
Supposedly it has some effect on what is owed at the end of the rental but so far no one has been able to detect just what this effect is or how it works.
The truly scientific explanation is that the deposit helps to “keep our rents competitive” but how a rent called a deposit does this is beyond the understanding of the average layman.
So when anyone talks about dark matter just think of your last cleaning deposit.
And to the question of whether the earth occupies a special place: Just recall how the landlord treated you to get you to move in, not the eviction notice when you were three days late with the rent.
You bet your sweet patootie it does. It's alive and well in the White House.
Observations, study, research, and more observations, repeating this process millions of times over many years. Technological advances assist in substantiating theories based on those observations, research and study.
Science fiction MUST be very logical...
Reality need not be so logical.. (nothing to prove)..
A direct quote from paragraph 3:
A giant void strikes most cosmologists.
This is a stupid statement. We're the only known place in the universe with life. And there's a Dairy Queen down the street from me.
Now I remember why I don't read this magazine anymore.
Thank God only science is taught in science class.
