“People need to be aware that there is a range of models that could explain the observations...
For instance, I can construct you a spherically symmetrical universe with Earth at its center, and you cannot disprove it based on observations...
You can only exclude it on philosophical grounds...
What I want to bring into the open is the fact that we are using philosophical criteria in choosing our models.
A lot of cosmology tries to hide that.”
