Doesn't the computer we plan to hurl at Saturn also count?

What about the ones that burned in Martian atmosphere or smashed to smitherens on the Martian surface?

and how about the ones we randomly throw at abyssal space, including 2 with placards showing naked woman in the hopes of being picked up by aliens?

Question: does the entire universe rotate a certain direction and do you think it's possible we could be on the receiving end of another universes black hole?
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

net rotation of the universe seems unlikely

IIRC, there are some theoretical reasons that inspired some observations that maybe sorta fail to show a net rotation

I'd expect a strong signature in the CMB. I'm not sure which, but shouldn't it show up?

I think they've also summed orientations of rotating galaxies across the sky and there is no 'favored' orientation. So as far as they know, no net angular momentum.

BTW, aerial photos of cows (IANMTU) shows they exhibit a preferred N-S orientation during the day, so such surveys find even mundane terrestrial use . . .

What is the latest skinny on a claim made 3-4 years back to effect that the sum total of the radial motion of all galaxies in the visible universe is not zero with respect to the CMB, thus implying the entire visible part of the universe is moving as a whole with respect to CMB?
