Your entire point seemed to be about religious people being idiots and you being far superior. You actually felt that your blind faith was so superior that theirs should be abolished. I'm not sure you understand the concept faith I guess is my point. Either that, or you've put far too much trust in this theory, which by your logic would surely make you just as stupid as the people you're insulting.

This is also the crux of religion though; the idea that if we don't have an explanation for something, we must invent one. That one of the already proposed solutions must be the correct one. Which is actually highly unlikely. Where does this idea come from that if someone isn't religious, or is actively anti-religious, they automatically "must believe in the big bang theory"?
The only reasonable standpoint, as far as I see it, is that we simply have to accept that we do not know or understand the origins of space and time. They are beyond us. We just don't know. But then people take that to mean, "and so a religion could be right!" which is simply ludicrous. It is essentially the idea that, out of infinite possibility, in an infinite and unknowable universe, some humans in the last few thousand years managed to straight up guess the truth, and beyond all logic, the truth is a collection of human-centric concepts? Bizarre.
