Doesn't anyone want to comment. Is anyone trying to think up a thought experiment to convince me, or are you just shaking your heads and muttering, "Why can't this idiot see the obvious?"

In the Big Bang theory, galaxies do not move through space (except for small local motions). They get farther apart despite remaining stationary because "new space" is continually created between them. -|Tom|-

If it was up to me all this stuff reguarding how redshift is being pondered by those people doing cosmology would be put in a museum somewhere. The stuff is getting more unreadable everyday. We need a new way to interpret the stuff.

Yes, I know that, Tom. But that doesn't make it intuitively obvious that SR does not apply to comoving objects. I am looking for a thought experiment that makes it undeniable.
