Incorrect; the majority of the hydrogen and most of the helium was created
in the first three minutes, but that is irrelevant to the discussion.

Hydrogen atoms were created in the big bang. Have you got some other
source of hydrogen?

Free neutron decay.

And the neutron was most likely produces by a *proton* turning
into a neutron via mechanisms like like the p-p chain. You
*fail* to convince me that our universe is producing protons
other that the big bang.
