The theory of the "big bang" does not address what may have happened before the "big bang". In fact, many proponents have stated in no uncertain terms, that there is no reason to believe that the laws of physics would have been similar prior to this event, that we are currently at a loss as to explaining the events prior to the big bang, if such a thing did occur, due to the nature of the thing itself. Emphasis being on the currently.
The idea that the big bang states that something came from nothing is a common straw man of theists, particularly christian theists. Further, our lack of knowledge in this regard does not default to the position that "goddidit", a position which you continue to assume regardless.
