What data supports that it was gradual? What started it in slow motion? If it took billions of years then regress to day one. What happened? What was the cause? What caused it into motion?
God created the cosmos. He wasn't trying to solve anything. He was creating.
You can simply say that God is timeless. Science can say that now. They know that there are dimensions that are not bound by the our 3 dimensions to which Einstein added the 4th, time.
As for infinite regression, Neutrinos are so much faster than the speed of light that they can be back before they leave. We've only just begun to unlock the wonders of the cosmos.
Um, all data supports that it was gradual. Just look at the facts. Unicellular organisms remained so for over two billion years until finally evolving into multi-cellular organisms. The first major step took half of the earths age to accomplish. If that isn't gradual, I don't know what is.
What are you saying when you say it "took billions of years to regress to day one?" That billions of years ago something happened? What does the billions have to do with anything? I'm even sure what you are getting at.
Then you say "he wasn't trying to solve anything" which presupposes that god exists, So, you are begging the question, (which is a logical fallacy).
Do you even know what infinite regression means, because you use a complete non-sequitur when you referred to to it and followed with the example of neutrinos. I have no idea what one has to do with the idea in the context of this discussion. Even if the claim that they traveled faster than light was true, which it isn't, that has nothing at all to do with infinite regression. But, just for the record, the claim that neutrinos move faster than light has been proved false.

Infinite regression needs a cause to cause a cause. But you put a time limit to it. Billions of years ago, so I am asking you what happened billions of years ago to set it in motion? What was the cause (billions of years ago)?
If it was infinite, wouldn't it be trillions of years ago? or a gill zillion years ago? or always in motion?
Hubble proved to Einstein that the cosmos was not static and Einstein realized that there indeed had to be a beginning. He called it the bane of his existence because he wanted infinite. I do not believe the jury is in on neutrinos or exactly how many dimensions there are. 10? 11? An infinite amount?
I do presuppose that God existed and was and remains in a timeless dimension.
You stated that before the big bang there was no time.
Tell me what else there was none of before the big bang. What caused the big to bang?
