What testable predictions does "And, God did it" make?
The evidence you're claiming is inconclusive and literally filled with holes. To fill in the holes, they have proposed dark matter. They propose that around 85 percent of the matter must be dark matter, yet nobody has been able to show any. Seems like an exceptionally big problem.
Uggg, you cannot complain about criticism of of old mythology, then talk about science. If you are going to argue against science, hate to burst your bubble, but that does not point to your club or God. The only thing attacking a scientific claim can do is debunk that claim, it still would not point to Allah or Buddha or Jesus, or Yahweh or Vishnu.
If a scientific claim is debunked, and the big bang is CONFIRMED and has been repeatedly over decades, but the only thing that confirms or debunks a claim is peer review, and religion is not peer review, because religion is bias and scientific method is neutral, separate from, and independent of any religious labels or god claims.
Muslims and Jews and Buddhist and Hindus, also pull this tactic too.
When the apologist cannot flat out sell "Hey I think this is neat", they resort to attacking science and say, "You don't know everything", then when they cant do that, they resort to, "Science points to my club/holy writing/ deity/s.
There is absolutely no dispute within the scientific community at that level of those who discovered microwave background radiation that the big bang theory DOES make predictions. That is the very definition of a theory.
Now show me where in your holy book where you see the letter for letter words "Dark matter" or "microwave background radiation" and show me the formulas in that holy writing that back up those words. Hint, "God did it" is not an answer.
