The only question is
'Whence the spin?'
The answer:
The Universe is spinning.


There is plenty of spinning going on *within* the universe, but the
universe as a whole....

Assuming the inflationary scenario is correct, one would expect any
universal rotation to be extremely small.

Yes, there is lots of spinning in the Universe.
The Universe continues at larger and smaller scales infinitely.
But the scale we are concerned with
is the next up from Black Holes.

Consider the neutron star; collections of electrons
melded to protons fall back into the BH to be spun
back up into plasma, stuff of stars.

What is this Black Hole? It is itself a nucleus
composed of protons and neutrons. It is spin.


No. There are no protons and neutrons on a BH. It is a singularity. Zero
volume, infinite density.


hahaha


Where did it get its spin?


From the spinning star that collapsed. Conservation of angular momentum.


Which star was that?
Is there a *preferred* star that collapses and then
becomes the central BH of each galaxy?
After this preferred star collapses then no
more stars collapse to form BHs...ever? Why?


I don't know why you would think that. Just because a galaxy has a Big
Old Black Hole in the core does not mean that there are no other black
holes in the galaxy.

Why wouldn't there be?

So why are they only seeing one at
the center of spiral galaxies?

Stars are collapsing ALL the time.
Where are all these black holes?

On the other hand, if spiral galaxies
are atoms and ellipticals are molecules
the former will have one at the center
and the latter more than one.
