The "Big Bang" accelerating model of the universe, is based on the belief that within 3-6 billion years after its creation, this universe gradually slowed its expansion, and then, contrary to all known laws of physics, suddenly began to accelerate and grow larger. Clearly, an object or substance in a close system which slows its expansion would be expected to stop, then begin to accelerate toward a collapse--As Einstein realized in 1917; and hence, he came up with the "greatest blunder" of his life, the so called "cosmological constant" which is supposed to keep the universe stable. The known, observed portion of the universe, however, is not stable, and is not organized and does not behave according to the "Big Bang" accelerating model; as witnessed by colliding galaxies and the clumping together of galaxies in great walls whose existence is contrary to prediction as these walls would have taken over 100 billion years to form--that is, unless the universe was collapsing and accelerating to its doom in a "big crunch." In modern day astronomy, however, the belief in an expanding, accelerating universe is considered sacrosanct and heretics--and disconfirming evidence-- are not tolerated.
