And here's another furphy of the EU crowd....all these galaxies and such are lined up along these extragalactic current filaments that string along and form all the large scale structures in the universe. That being the case, all galaxies should have a preferred orientation to their rotational axes...they should all face the same direction or at least the direction in which the current is flowing. There's absolutely no evidence for this whatsoever. A cursory look at any population of galaxies, anywhere in the universe and you will find random orientations of the galaxies. They point in every direction. The most obvious example being our own Local Group. If you follow the EU thesis, the centre of our galaxy should be in line with M31, M33 and all the others, and these in turn should be lined up with the galaxies of the Virgo Cluster and Supercluster. At least to those that belonged on the same filament (which would be the majority of them), along which our common motion through space was directing us.
