Okay, I just figured this out and I need to get it written down. Something about the big bang theory has always bothered me, and there was something humanocentric about all these galaxies moving away from us, but not from each other.
But here's the final stake in the Heart. Okay, according to einsteins theory of relativity, 1) light moves at a constant rate, 2) the source of light emission can move at whatever speed it wants, the emitted light moves at the speed of light, period. Regardless of the velocity of the emitting source, the light wave is emitted in an unchanged state.
In order for us to see red shift via doppler, WE would have to be moving away from the lightwaves at the appropriate speeds. As illustrated in the image, it's impossible to move away from all sources in every direction. If the blue dot is us, and the red dots are the galaxies moving away from us the blue dot cannot move in a direction that could cause a red shift.
Further, the theory that galaxies are moving at velocities so incredible that they emission source is moving away from us sufficiently fast enough to produce the wave over an extended expanse of space has it's issues as well. The velocities needed to shift light would also create a noticable DIMINISHING of light within our observable attention span.. In short, Nearby galaxies would have to fade to the intensity of farther galaxies within the period of our observance, perhaps even within the measurment of a single evening's viewing. If they're moving away at 0.1 lightspeed the radiation sphere would be growing, relative to us at phenomenal rates, which would rapidly diminsh the avaliable light directed specifically at us.
The theories of red shift produced by gravity wells is entirely more plausible, though with disturbing consequenses to universal origin.
