It's really simple - I don't know what preceded the Big Bang. I don't know if there was a Big Bang - however there is convincing evidence that there was a beginning to our universe and it looked a lot like what is described be the Big Bang.
Then you should restrict your answer to just" I don't know". But instead you continue to offer theories e.g.
"I don't know if there was a Big Bang - however there is convincing evidence that there was a beginning to our universe and it looked a lot like what is described be the Big Bang."

Do you ever stop to examine your logic, or is the answer sufficient to you if it ends in "therefore: God"?
Because it's been drilled in to you from early on, you don't seem to realize that belief in God requires the following beliefs to be held without evidence, and with significant evidence against them:
Belief that the supernatural exists
Belief that a supernatural being existed eternally, without a cause
Belief that supernatural being is your specific God deity
Belief that your religion was influenced by that God
Belief that deity not only created the universe, but fathered a son with a virgin and sacrificed his son who was also himself to himself because of a talking snake.
"I don't know" is volumes more rational than everything above, plus more dogma.
