If the rate of expansion one second after the Big Bang had been smaller by even one part in 100 thousand million million, the universe would have collapsed before it ever reached its present size." *

If you can show the rate of expansion could have had a different value, there's a Nobel waiting for you. And if the rate of expansion had been slightly faster, we still get a universe.
If faster, galaxies & stars wouldn't have formed.

The best help I can offer you is to suggest that you expand your reading on cosmology beyond out-of-context snippets that you think support the deliberate, willful ‘creation’ of the universe.

I've tried but you keep rejecting the light and truth of FSM.

Sure. Deesse23 probably means that a universe without stars and galaxies is still a universe. Since you're so knowledgeable about cosmoslogy and can apparently follow the math, how much faster would the initial expansion have to be for stars and galaxies not to form? A citation is fine, I never got past freshman calculus.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
