Our universe is most likely a closed-finite universe, otherwise we are in the very center. I'm sure that would make the pope happy, but it's just not tenable. (the closed-finite model means that if you could travel far enough in a straight line, you would return back to where you started. I could show several reasons why this is most likly, but it might take a LOT of typing.) That article assumes an infinite universe, and since more distant galexies are retreating more quickly than close ones, that is impossible. Fun reading though.
