Back to cosmological musings again.
Reading through some accounts as published on the internet it becomes
clear that there are several beliefs that continue to predominate in
questions about matter, time and universe.
1). There was no matter before the universe began with the "big bang"
origin.
2). Distance from the origin is the basis for determinining the time
that any observable matter has existed since the "big bang".
It is suggested alternatively that:
1). There was matter before the origin and that the origin is not
unique, ie. that the origin is only an instance of a common process
that occurs at various places and times within infinite space-time as
a whole.
2). That distance from the origin is a false indication of the age of
SOME instances of observable matter.
It is predicated that some instances of observable matter have other
origins other than the "big bang" responsible for the larger portion
of the observable matter seen with our telescopes.

Even the notion of Big Bang is only a theory also, based on
General Relativity. If GR eventually fell from favor, so would
the Big Bang.
Electromagnetism does not require a Big Bang for matter
to be created. Simple photons of energy 1.022 MeV coming
close enough together can split into pairs of electron-positron
as was demonstrated at SLAC some years ago.
So all could also have begun very modestly and built up
progressively to what we see today. The universe could
be much older and much larger than what GR leads to
believe. No one knows, in fact.
