I've changed the topic of this thread to just be the age of the universe. Please address the other questions in other threads. --Admin
although i must confess that an outer expansion pulling apart and stretching a fabric in which bodies sit on thereby expanding is a decent theory sustainable by the math of relativity, I'm afraid i still see a blank spot on relativity and time as it is used.
how is it that there is a dating for the age of the universe? how accurate is it in reliable terms?
relativity:
we know the faster something moves that time becomes warped in its relativity to the stationary. but what is the true expansion within our view points?
lets see our galaxy, in which our solar system is revolving around something, and our planet also taking its revolutions, and the system the our solar system moves around is also moving within the great spiral of the apparent black whole in the center of the galaxy. now taking our own galaxy, we are either expanding in this galaxy, or falling back towards its center.
by observation of the spiral design, it is more apparent to me that we are indeed cycling back towards the center of the milky way, whilst other galaxies move in their directions.
if a car is driving 30 miles an hr, and a car passing the opposite way is traveling 30 miles an hour, there is an appearance of 60 miles an hr as it moves away.
has the calculations of our own greater bodies movement (and our solar systems smaller movement, and the earth rotation) been taken into account when measuring the expansion of other greater bodies?

keep your mind from this way of enquiry, for never will you show that not-being is
