Alex it's important to remember what you are calling inflation theory is in fact a flavour of the big bang model of creation.
Inflation was included into the big bang theory to keep it in line with the know facts, as I said before a theory has to be consistent with all the know facts. http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/universe/bb_cosmo_infl.html
What is it that you don't like about it, the rate of expansion or the bonding of the amount of "energy" within the universe. It seems to me that the very thing you seem not to like about Inflation is one of the things it explains really well. Can you expand please on what your thoughts are.
Well I feel unqualified to stand up to the current views but to nail down my specific complaint re inflation I feel my previous post says it all... I do not call my ideas a theory and frankly the inflation theory seems to have less basis for its place in the big bang theory than my push ideas should replace anything out there to date..I know an idea and call it so..inflation is no more than an idea...

I did think inflation was part and parcel of the big bang idea..however you say it is but one flavour... my understanding is that without inflation or a suitable alternative big bang dies as there is no way to fix why everything is the same...simply put...I am not sure but we need it to expalin why we have all laws the same...now it does not worry me at all other than it seemed to me that because it saved big bang it got thru the hypothesis to theory stage with out the demands placed upon other hypothisis...

So given "they" found the "problem" and given it was a fair one to examine I would have thought the demand from the "saving" idea may well have needed something in the way of supporting observation or evidence and not simply a math construct without "real" evidence to support the placement of it in the gutz of the main theory and as I understand saw inflation as crutial for its (bb) very survival.
