I'm a Christian as well, so I believe there is a God.

While theres no evidence of God, there is no evidence of a big bang either. It's just a theory.

This is the reason I try not to enter these debates. Because more education is necessary before this kind of debate can take place. More time is spent trying to correct factual inaccuracies, and bring a person's education up to speed (usually against their will) just so that an actual debate can take place, and by that time they've already moved on to some other topic. I feel like there needs to be an entrance exam to these kinds of debates and unless you clear the bar you aren't allowed inside.

It seems like every five minutes on this site I have to explain what a theory is to someone.

A theory is a testable hypothesis that has successful results, it has to have a lot of evidence behind it to understand it better...

Basically, Theory = Fact

Either way it comes to an illogical conclusion. Either the universe(s) always existed, or a super intelligent invisible man always existed. Which is why it's impossible to disprove god, which is why I don't try. Disproving god is impossible, but luckily showing the flaws of specific religions is pretty damn easy.

I already figured out the logical conclusion... It's not either of those...

In the beggining, there was an infinite void of nothing. Then the void collapsed on itself, and exploded, causing the big bang.

I win.

I don't think that's going to go very far. Nothing collapsed on itself and then exploded? I don't know if you're joking or not.

 

I believe in GOD, but I do admit that there is no 100% solid evidence that GOD exists, but I think he does because why do we have a Christmas and an Easter?

The church wanted to replace Pagan holidays.

Christmas was the winter solstice, Easter the spring equinox. There are festivities associated with these in a lot of cultures and religions. Christianity adapted to that.
Eggs and bunnies are way closer to a fertility symbol than a ressurection one.
