Abstract
It is shown that, as a consequence of the no-return theorem of Tipler, a generic non-spacelike convergent compact space-time cannot admit a closed embedded edgeless spacelike hypersurface. Such a space-time cannot therefore be spatially isotropic and so cannot provide a satisfactory model of the universe.
