re: #299 Kosh’s Shadow

Of course, in Newton’s day, there was no scientific theory of the formation of the universe.
The evidence for the Big Bang wasn’t found until the 20th century.

Even then, it faced a bit of an uphill battle for acceptance. For acceptance, there’s also plate tectonics theory. First propsed as early as the 1920s, and not gaining any real aceeptance until the 1960s.
