The origin of the universe being complete impossible to prove

Firstly, let me explain the whole illusion thing. You don't have to eat but you might experience illusion of starvation, you don't have to pay the light bill but you might experience the illusion of darkness. You might will that you win the debate and might win it but it wouldn't be because you realized that it is an illusion. Realizing that the world is an illusion does not change the nature of the illusion. Everything may still appear to be as it always has been. let me see if I can reach across the religious divide and bring us a little closer. Firstly current thinking of the big bang is that is a one time thing which is consistent with the Christian view of time that it has a beginning and an end. It is true that for a while some believed that the big bang was a repeating thing that would more agree with religions such as that of Maya which imagine many cycles. So chalk one up for the Christians. It also is the classic example of the second rule of thermodynamics going from one singularity to finally fading away into mater and energy as dissipated as can be imagined. Nothing about the big bang theory says anything about before the bang. For all we know the thing immediately previous to the big bang might have been God saying "Let there be light." Let me give something for you to think about concerning the big bang and the age of the universe. The bible says things happened on the first day, second day, third day, ect. It didn't say earth day. Days can be anywhere from a few seconds to almost an infinite number of our years. And, notice please that on the first day God had not created the earth. So the earth day at that point could have been any amount of time he wanted it to be. Maybe the bible was speaking of heaven days. Since we know virtually nothing about heaven heaven days could theoretically be any length of time whatsoever. I wouldn't have brought up the evolution thing if I had known you didn't believe in it. The evidence for evolution is so overwhelming that any attempt to explain it a short space really gives you a false impression that evidence is less than it is. There is the fossil evidence mind numbingly voluminous involving countless fossils of countless species. It is true that the number of hominid fossils are few and the exact evolution of man can't be mapped out using fossil evidence. But the evidence for evolution is based so many different kinds of evidence. There is incredible evidence from embryology and from DNA. The very same technology that you probably trust in court cases. The vast majority of this evidence from widely different types of sources consistent with each other. There are some inconsistencies here and there and some things that used be taught about evolution have turned out to be false. But there is no silver bullet that kills the concept of evolution and believe me anyone who tells you that there is, is either mistaken or much more disturbingly lying. Many people find no conflict between evolution and Christianity. Darwin himself did not. He lost his faith not because of his scientific theories but because of the tragic death of his daughter. The Catholic church does not oppose evolution. I feel that the vast majority of Christians working their little plot of soil in Africa or South America never give a thought to evolution or the big bang. Neither speaks at all to the message of redemption in Christianity. I mean god could make very person out candy canes using unionized elf labour, what would the difference really be?
