Cosmology is the scientific study of the large scale properties of the universe as a whole. It endeavors to use the scientific method to understand the origin, evolution and ultimate fate of the entire Universe...

I'm for sure not the first person to venture into questioning the stated facts and theories of cosmology. My only qualifications are my own sense of reason and logic.
Our best scientific reasoning when it comes to the creation of the universe is the big bang theory. A theory that has so much credence that $13.5 billion was stolen from the tax slaves to build the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in order to 'recreate the first moments after the Big Bang'.
One would think the best theories are based on facts. Some facts exist and a theory is built around them. So what is it about modern cosmology where the facts are quite literally having to be searched for to fit the theory?
Let's start off just after the big bang where we'll skip the small conundrum of everything being created from nothing and look at particles.
An equal amount of anti matter and matter should have been created, with each positively
charged particle such as the positron and negative such as the electron coming into contact with each other and cancelling each other out leaving just pure energy.
What we actually have is roughly 1 part per billion of matter left behind rather than equal decay. But we kept on with the theory!
Next when the gravity lensing effect on light from visible galaxies is too great science has concluded that mass must be hidden from view.
This and other reasons have given birth to the theory of dark energy and dark matter making up 80+% of the universe.
So due to the theory of gravity being introduced in to the big bang theory scientism rather than scratch the big bang keep it limping along with another theory as must be fact.
I'll stop now but could go on.
As equaly as plausible when you consider everything from nothing as the premise for fact would be the universe was created by a giant tortoise farting, and for the most ludicrous suggestion of all is that God created the universe.
