In fact, if you have a very large volume of mass at constant density, then it is guaranteed to become a black hole if the volume is large enough — no matter how small the density! [13] This means that if we had a large volume of soft cotton wool, with a uniformly low density, it would collapse to form a black hole as long as the volume was large enough.
~ Andrew Thomas
The Schwarzschild radius of the universe is the huge distance of 1.5 × 1027m (calculated from the mass of 1054kg) — a distance which is larger than the radius of the current observable universe. So the whole mass of the universe is contained within its Schwarzschild radius. This means that, for the universe as a whole, the repulsive effect becomes highly-significant. Gravity would act to expand the universe.

I was this Catholic kid, and I never really lost that. I loved the rituals of Catholicism. The mass is a magic ritual; it's a transubstantiation, and the stations of the cross - I mean, a crown of thorns? Getting whipped? It's punk rock.
