Or I already do, but don't understand the significance of you posting this.

The "golden age" has usually been associated with what philosophers believed to have existed that contained in a society will certain ideals that contain a utopia. You call the big bang "the golden age"? Where does that come from? Speaking in terms that relate to us societally, not universally, I agree with can not ever reach a golden age, not because

You also say there is much room for interpretation. Hopefully I'm not "interpreting" my next statement because I disagree with that because there is much room for more data which can speak for itself, but interpretation depends on lack of data.

But yeah, I got mad at you about something earlier in the thread and I can't remember why, so, sorry about that. I do disagree with you that phsyicists and astronomers disgree about the universe expanding, and I think they agree that it is even accelerating; far from contracting. I thought it was archaic not to believe it was expanding so if you have some new data post a link.
