This could turn out to be interesting, I never really explored the c-decay theory

Are these peer-reviewed journals ? They all propose a faster speed of light in the past.

Yeah well of course none of these papers would be relevant to a creationist theory lol.
But I found it interesting that these papers were to solve the horizon problem in big bang cosmology, which is essentially a problem caused by the finite speed of light, but for the big bang. This is not the most popular solution to this problem since the inflation phase proposed by Alan Guth is, but it seems now that even the inflation solution is having a horizon problem, thus why these articles about possibly having the speed of light much, much higher in the beginning of the big bang came out recently (both in 1999)
