The Big Bang, if it existed (as it well might) could disprove creationism, but is unrelated to the question of God and to this discussion. God could simply have made the universe with the Big Bang and developed it with evolution. Even so, where could have the Big Bang come from? Most educated people would find the idea of a giant puff of hydrogen occurring out of nowhere and for no reason preposterous compared to the idea of an eternal, all-perfect Creator. Everything in science indicates that something is always caused by another, which in turn is caused by something else. Sooner or later there must be a First Cause, and atheistic scientists have failed to provide information as to what that could be. It is not the theists who refuse to listen to the voice of reason.
What is the First Cause for God?
I don't believe there can be a first cause. Time is eternal, both back and forth, and so are the causes and effects.
