And why is this so impossible? Considering the seemingly infinite number of monkeys with keyboards pounding out cosmologies on the internet , I find it difficult to imagine that not one of them has yet to come up with a superior alternative either by fool’s luck or design. Just consider what Edgar Allen Poe was writing back in the mid 1800’s long before these cosmologies were mainstream.
