My point exactly. The difference between light from 14 billion years ago and
the time of the big bang is only a few hundred million years, so how is it we
got to where we are after the big bang and the light from AFTER the big bang
has taken 14 million years to catch up to us? It should have been here long
before we got here because WE aren't travelling close to the speed of light.
