So maybe if I show him the picture of the early universe

and tell him that over 80 years now scientists can observe the big bang by studying background radiation he'll see that there is indeed evidence for big bang and he'll start abandoning his childish worldview.
Oh look this guy believes evidence is proof and what he calls back ground radiation is also not proven and no one outside of God knows the bounds of the universe.

The existence of the CMB was predicted and its magnitude was calculated, which is why there were scientists (such as Robert Dickie) who were looking for it. Where do you think that the CMB comes from? By the way, you can "watch" the CMB:
Is x% noise on TV due to Big Bang's background radiation?

You I think believe that god always existed.
But you have a problem.
Because if god always existed then he needed time and space to exist in. And if a god can exist there then so can some natural cause of our universe.
Anywhere god can be so can things other than a god.
What could possibly change that view evidence FOR a god however first you have to tell me what you think a god actually is and you keep avoiding that.
I don't think you know.
I certainly don't know what you think one is.
That is your own flawed explanation.
It's important to realize that time is relative. You can literally manipulate time. If you can have more time or less time, then you should be able to logically conclude that you can have a point of no time.
Oh wait, the first thing the Bible does is establish a starting point for time -
In the beginning...

Lol! In what way he didn't revive the knowledge of Alexandria when he clearly attributed the heliocentric theory to Aristarchus who lived most of his life in Alexandria! Aristarchus entirety of work was lost in a great fire that destroyed the library in Alexandria.
And most of the European rediscovery of ancient world came during the renaissance after the fall of Constantinople when some of the ancient books were brought to Europe.
Here are some other rediscoveries

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Quote:The idea that God created the universe out of nothing (creatio ex nihilo) has become central to Judaism, Christianity and Islam, but it is not found directly in Genesis, nor in the entire Hebrew Bible.[4][2][5] According to Gerhard May, the Priestly authors of Genesis 1, writing around 500–400 BCE, had been concerned not with the origins of matter (the material which God formed into the habitable cosmos), but with the fixing of destinies. This was still the situation in the early 2nd century CE, although early Christian scholars were beginning to see a tension between the idea of world-formation and the omnipotence of God. By the beginning of the 3rd century this tension was resolved, world-formation was overcome, and creation ex nihilo had become a fundamental tenet of Christian theology.[6]

Jebus will never come back. At least the Jebus of The Bible as he is fictional and wasn’t here a first time.

I know who he is. Again, not an authority.
Additionally, I don't know that anybody asserted "creatio ex nihilo" in this thread, and it's certainly not "central" as stated in your post.

You could always put that at the beginning of all your posts.
