Galaxies formed waaay after the Big Bang and we can't actually observe
anything earlier than the recombination around 400,000yr after the BB.
I don't know what JKC said about the speed of early expansion, but it
seems to be increasing so it will be faster in the future than it was in
the past.

Given the fact that light from very distant galaxies is hugely
red-shifted, and the general belief that light we're observing today
from those distant galaxies, was emitted when the universe was very
young, one would conclude that the rate of expansion at that time was
huge. But Clark disputes this conclusion. He claims the opposite; that
the rate of expansion in the very early universe was exceedingly SLOW.
If that's the case, can we conclude that the theory of Inflation must
be false, insofar as it alleges a huge initial expansion rate to
account for the observed uniformity of the current universe? Moreover,
Hubble's law confirms that as we go back in time, the universe was
expanding faster than it is today, again apparently confirming the
Inflation theory of a very high initial rate of expansion (ignoring
recent findings the the rate of expansion is iagain ncreasing). AG --
