There are many theories
that people have postulated. For the most part,
they are on the fringes because they introduce
more problems than they solve. Proposals for a
non-singularity at the beginning of the universe
are not fringe theories. They are given serious
consideration because they seem capable of
explaining a large number of currently
unanswered questions. Even people who think the
universe may have started as a singularity admit
that they don't have the mathematical tools to
describe a universe starting that way.
If you care to brush up on m-brane theory, you
will discover that mainstream physics is
perfectly comfortable with "big bangs" that
don't
start from a singularity.
Now anyone can google anything to come up with
articles on the Internet supporting their
position. However there are no observations that
require a rotating universe. And certainly no
mainstream physicists who demand it. Indeed, as
I said earlier, the physics of relativity allow
for a rotating universe and even for a
stationary earth. That is the nature of
relativity. All motion is relative, even the
universe's.
There's just no point in complicating the
mathematics by having the universe move and me
stand still when calculating my fuel consumption
on a trip to the grocery store.
