This is the planet-wide attitude. The Big Bang is too much of a label for modern thought. Eight Nobel medals stand behind it. Not even a proven-true return to the young Einstein can incite anyone to ask for caution.
What would you do in my place? Shall I apologize that I better understand the way of thinking of the young Einstein? After the passage of a century this is hardly a big deal.
Not a single colleague contradicts me in the literature for eight years already. And the only one who improved on my result refuses to give me the full equation because this would put him into the limelight.
Is this not the most interesting event ever? “His blood come over us and our children” is the closest historical statement: Self-hatred everywhere – Freud’s Thanatos principle.
