Webb Telescope Finds Evidence of Massive Galaxies That Defy Theories of the Early Universe

My theory is that light slows down near the edge of the universe.

If we assume a Big Bang explosion that is hurtling mass in all spherical directions from a central point, then the furthest distance between two points would be along the diameter from one edge to the other. Every point in the universe would be on a diameter that goes through it.

If we were on, say, the "east" side of the diameter in the middle of that radius traveling west, as we approach the furthest points closest to the "edge" of the galaxy the entire mass of the galaxy would be behind us exerting its gravitational pull. There would be less and less mass ahead of us to counteract the gravitational pull from behind.

How would light react to the gravitational pull of the entire universe in one direction, with little gravitational pull coming from the other direction? How would this look to us through our telescopes from our stationary point of view along the other end of that diameter?
