Default expansion of the universe is cause from a strong gravitational pull.

Could what we interpret as the expansion of the univers ( universal red shifting ) be cause from everything in the universe being pulled towards one gravitational point?


The thought here would be that things that are closer to the object would be pulling away from us at a faster rate towards that object.

Things that are farther away from us would be pulling away from us at a faster rate as it is moving slower than us. Everything is pulling away from us the further away the bigger the difference in redshift.
