Update 10 Jan 2022: The Kavli Institute at the University of Tokyo offered up another idea to address the antimatter asymmetry. “Gravitational waves could be key to answering why more matter was left over after Big Bang,” their press release says (Jan 8). They put forth a weird theory of “Q balls” that depend on the speed of inflation, the inflation field and gravitational waves. They admit it is “a bit tricky to understand” and “testing of this paradigm has been difficult” – an understatement, since inflation was a theory rescue device, not an observation. More interesting is their description of the antimatter problem:
The reason humans exist is because at some time in the first second of the Universe’s existence, somehow more matter was produced than anti-matter. The asymmetry is so small that only one extra particle of matter was produced every time ten billion particles of anti matter were produced. The problem is that even though this asymmetry is small, current theories of physics cannot explain it. In fact, standard theories say matter and anti matter should have been produced in exactly equal quantities, but the existence of humans, Earth, and everything else in the universe proves there must be more, undiscovered physics.
All these problems find their resolution in this short statement in the Bible:
For thus
says the Lord, who created the heavens (he is God!), who formed the
earth and made it (he established it; he did not create it empty, he
formed it to be inhabited!): “I am the Lord, and there is no other. (Isaiah 45:18)." CEH
