What you believe is irrelevant. What you can demonstrate and substantiate is all that counts. Belief is not evidence of anything other than that you believe it; and why should anyone else care?
However, let's entertain this belief for a moment. You say that "God" made life from non-life. Ok - how? By what mechanism or means? Can it be replicated? What is its predictive capacity and its usefulness? It cannot be replicated by humans because God is God and humans are no where neaf ss powerful. Any way you cannot replicate life from non life.
My fetish is bald assertions with directly contrary scientific evidence, keep going baby.

Esqui, this is his bread and butter. He's literally said nothing we say will ever convince him, why would he look at anything we say?

Sorry, but the BB has tons of evidence to support it. Some already mentioned by previous posters.
But more importantly, the BB theory makes predictions, that are testable. One example: the BB theory predicted decades ago that we should see gravity waves in the universe that are remnants of the original expansion. And you know what? Those ripples in space time were just discovered in March of this year.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

I would like to see maybe a small counter arguement but its not happening.

Then, carm, since your belief is defined as untestable you have painted yourself into an unfalsifiable corner. That's not a comfortable place to be.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

He thinks that we are like deaf so if he keeps repeating himself we will eventually get it and agree with him..
It's not immoral to eat meat, abort a fetus or love someone of the same sex...I think that about covers it

I and others have spent multiple threads giving you direct refutations of things you've claimed. You just ignore them or change the topic.
