Hi, all.

Regarding Schroeder's comments which, of course, I liked: I think it is easy as a student and a layman to become confused over which theories influence each other. We sort of grow up thinking relativity and big bang and all these ideas are related in a big science jumble, and they all have something to do with why we're here by way of "That" rather than by way of creation. So I am not surprised the approach of most amateur scientists or students beginning to learn of the theories is to start connecting each with each, using the new facts they've learned, without considering their autonomous status and, therefore, without grasping the true connection between them.

I haven't read the paper Schroeder refers to, which I should have done for a proper response, but I thought I would defend the layman on the grounds that the big science jumble we grow up with is hard to dismangle, although I think anyone interested at all in scientific ideas should try heartily. Certainly if he undertakes to write on it.
