BENTLEY”S theory (or paradox)


According to Richard Bentley (in 1692) . If the universe was finite , then the night sky, instead of being eternal and static, should be a scene of incredible carnage , as stars plowed into each other and coalesced into a fiery superstar.
But Bentley, also pointed out that if the universe was infinite, then the force on any object, tugging it to the left or right, would also be infinite and therefore the stars should be ripped to shreds in “fiery” cataclysm.
This paradox  was a disaster for the young theory being proposed by NEWtON
And in some way this paradox, Some how checkmated Newton !
