Abstract: The set of homogeneous isotropic connections, as used in loop quantum cosmology, forms a line $l$ in the space of all connections $calA$. This embedding, however, does not continuously extend to an embedding of the configuration space $overlinel$ of homogeneous isotropic loop quantum cosmology into that of loop quantum gravity, $overlinecalA$. This follows from the fact that the parallel transports for general, non-straight paths in the base manifold do not depend almost periodically on $l$. Analogous results are given for the anisotropic case.
