“....inflation is theorized to have occurred in the instant prior to the solidifying of the physical laws of the universe.”
So they can just throw out the physical laws of the universe in order to keep their theory valid? That’s not science. That’s miraculous. Just say the universe has always existed. That makes more sense. But then an intelligent creator makes a lot more sense.
Why do you think that there has to be choice between the existence of God and the Big Bang? Why not both? You have put forth the logical fallacy of a false dilemma.
You know........really?
