Alan Guth back in the day trying to come up with some delicious Mathematical Fudge for the Big Bang
Even if the big-bang evolutionary time-scale were correct, the distance light would have traveled across the universe to equilibrate the temperature is only about a 10th... This is what is known in cosmology as the "horizon problem". So they invent a mathematical fudge factor like "inflation" theory, etc... Because the uniformity of the temperature of the universe undermines the big bang... And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. Colossians 1:17
