ately over and done with, to be followed by a little ra<strong>the</strong>r simplenuclear physics, to be followed by what? By a dull-asditchwaterexpansion which degrades itself adiabatically until itis incapable of doing anything at all. The notion that galaxiesform, to be followed by an active astronomical history, is anillusion. Nothing forms, <strong>the</strong> thing is as dead as a door-nail...The punch-line is that, even though outward speeds are maintainedin a free explosion, internal motions are not. <strong>In</strong>ternalmotions die away adiabatically, and <strong>the</strong> expanding systembecomes inert, which is exactly why <strong>the</strong> big-bang cosmologieslead to a universe that is dead-and-done-with almost from itsbeginning.”These views correspond with <strong>the</strong> findings of Hermann Schneider, anuclear physicist of Heidelberg, who has critically evaluated <strong>the</strong>big bang <strong>the</strong>ory from a physical viewpoint. He concludes [S5]: “<strong>In</strong><strong>the</strong> evolution model <strong>the</strong> natural laws have to describe <strong>the</strong> origin ofall things in <strong>the</strong> macro and <strong>the</strong> micro cosmos, as well as <strong>the</strong>ir operation.But this overtaxes <strong>the</strong> laws of nature.”Fred Hoyle makes <strong>the</strong> following remarks about <strong>the</strong> much quotedprimeval soup in which life supposedly developed according toevolutionary expectations [H4, p 526]:“I don’t know how long it is going to be before astronomersgenerally recognise that <strong>the</strong> combinatorial arrangement of noteven one among <strong>the</strong> many thousands of biopoymers on whichlife depends could have been arrived at by natural processeshere on <strong>the</strong> Earth. Astronomers will have a little difficulty atunderstanding this because <strong>the</strong>y will be assured by biologiststhat it is not so, <strong>the</strong> biologists having been assured in <strong>the</strong>ir turnby o<strong>the</strong>rs that it is not so. The “o<strong>the</strong>rs” are a group of personswho believe, quite openly, in ma<strong>the</strong>matical miracles. Theyadvocate <strong>the</strong> belief that tucked away in nature, outside of normalphysics, <strong>the</strong>re is a law which performs miracles.”<strong>In</strong> his book, “Syn<strong>the</strong>tische Artbildung” (The syn<strong>the</strong>tic formation ofkinds), Prof Dr Heribert Nilsson, a botanist at Lund University inSweden, describes evolutionary doctrine as an obstacle which prevents<strong>the</strong> development of an exact biology:105
