Abstract
Our earlier results regarding the absence of Birch anisotropy in cosmological models with rotation were obtained under the assumption that a bundle of rays forming the image of a source is nonrotating. This appears to be at variance with the rotation of space. The detailed analysis in the present paper of the behavior of rays propagating from a source to an observer shows that the congruence of the rays is, in fact, nonrotating. The doubts expressed by some authors in reference to our conclusions that the Birch effect is not attributable to cosmological rotation are thereby put to rest.
