I'm not an astronomer but I've wondered about that too. Perhaps the red
shift from distant objects is just simply caused by the photons
gradually losing energy after a few billion years. A lower energy photon
means a longer wavelength, i.e. a red shift.

Consider that if the velocity of space is slowing down, the
volume of space would necessarily be expanding according to
the theory of relativity and photons would indeed lose energy.
The saddle model of the universe seems most likely to me because
of that slowing down process that will eventually lead to collapse
and another big bang.

I think God likes playing with our minds. I would if I were him. :-)

Shame on you (and Him).
