We compare observations of the high redshift galaxy population to the predictions of the galaxy formation model of Croton et al. (2006). This model, implemented on the Millennium Simulation of the concordance ΛCDM cosmogony, introduces “radio mode” feedback from the central galaxies of groups and clusters in order to obtain quantitative agreement with the luminosity, colour, morphology and clus...

Arguments and evidence against the hot big bang model are summarized. The observations which point to an explosive cosmogony and the quasi-steady state cosmology are outlined. 1 The Historical Setting Modern cosmology began with the realization that there were solutions to Einstein’s theory of gravity discovered by Friedmann and Lemaitre which when combined with the redshift distance relation o...

Biblical exegetes from Antiquity and the Middle Ages continuously confronted cosmogonic narrative offered in Genesis with scientific cosmological theories of their times. Besides addressing theological questions raised by text, most past were occupied harmonizing biblical cosmogony current knowledge or dealing manifest discrepancies.

A close reading of the cosmogony found in preface to Ō no Yasumaro 太安萬侶’s Kojiki 古事記 (Record Ancient Matters, 712 CE) reveals ways which Japan’s early Nara period elites appropriated aspects China’s Daoist traditions for their own literary, mythological, and political purposes.
