Quote from the second video from Edwin Hubble (who the Hubble Telescope was named after) --
"...is intolerable... and to escape the horror of a unique position..."
Here is the fuller quote:
"But the unwelcome supposition of a favoured location must be avoided at all costs… Such a favoured position, of course, is intolerable… Therefore, in order to restore homogeneity, and to escape the horror of a unique position..."
Stop. Think about that. Let that sink in.
Hubble is freaking out because the scientific evidence suggests we are NOT in a random location in "space", but in a unique position, like were were created on purpose. He is WILLFULLY CHOOSING to exclude this scientific evidence ON PHILOSOPHICAL GROUNDS because he doesn't like the conclusion it demands. He is not invincibly ignorant, but WILLFULLY ignoring the truth. Willfully fleeing from the conclusion that God created the realm we live in.
Horror? Yes, I understand why he would think that. All who flee from God will experience horror on their deathbed, and especially at the Particular Judgment before God. All who live ungodly lives recoil in horror at the thought of having to render an account to God of their lives.
"It is a terrible thing to fall into the hands of the living God."
