Is the majority right? For majority opinion to change on the correctness of the hot bigbang cosmology, it is clear that one or more of the arguments given above [the redshift-distance relation, the microwave backgroud radiation, the abundance of the light isotopes D,3He,4He, and7Li] must be seen to fail. To most cosmologists, this appears, at present, to be very unlikely. However, if a change does occur, it will probably come from one of three directions: a. A demonstration that the redshifts are not (all) Doppler shifts associated with the expansion of the universe. b. A demonstration that there is another plausible mechanism which could be responsible for the MBR, probably related to the idea that not have been coupled to the matter at an earlier epoch. c. Revised abundance determinations for the light isotopes which lead to the conclusion that they could not have been made in early nucleosynthesis. (Burbidge 1989, p.988)
