It just seems like it's a heck of a stretch to say that everything originated from one singular point when that singular point may be (and in all probability is) well outside our observable range. So we have evidence that stuff is moving away from something, but that relatively small chunk of the universe that we can see moving is not reflective of the rest of the universe, right?

or do we somehow have evidence that stuff outside of what we can observe is also moving away from the same point?

I get that the big bang isn't inconsistent with what we know, but I guess I don't see how that's is the leading theory right now when it's premised on the notion that everything is expanding, yet we don't know everything is expanding, or have any evidence for such a claim.

now I'm picturing a "little bang" where everything in our observable universe is maybe emanating from a single point, but the rest of the universe existed well before that.

Idk man, I was a poli sci major in college yo. I don't know about space and shit, but this just seems wack now that I take 10 seconds to think about it.
