Quasar theories
I'm not a regular reader, so excuse me if this has been discussed, but
is it possible to account for the red-shifts of quasars by assuming they
are extremely massive, so that it is a gravitational red-shift?  They would
have to be fairly spread out to avoid becoming black holes, but this would
account for only seeing red shifts, and would leave the question of distance
open (unless you assume such objects only existed in the early universe).
