Why we still don't understand the Universe - even after a century of dispute

Discordance fits into the class of conventional popular cosmology, in so far that it is an account of how our present understanding of the Universe has emerged.

It presents modern cosmology as an unfinished business, rather than as the final conclusion on what the Universe is all about.
