The problem lies in that my bar is not a ring/circle. It is like the axis of the planet whereas Lyx2no's, Cavediver's and Straggler's is a ring/circle. Mine is straight in all trajectoral dimensions. This is what I've continually described and they are trying to turn my straight bar into a ring/circle. No way can they make my straight bar rejoin itself. Neither the properties of space or the bar allow for it.
In fact it is a property of space - it's curvature - that demands that the ends of the bar meet up. It follows a "straight" path right around the universe.

Don't forget, IaJ, I'm debating for my static unbounded space universe and they are debating for their bounded space circular universe.
And therefore your argument is no good since it assumes that space is not curved. In short your argument is circular since it tries to prove your model by stating what would occur
if your model were correct. All you're doing is begging the question.
