This is known as a 'tu quoeque' fallacy.
"I don't have eyewitness evidence for my unsupported beliefs, but neither do you!. So, both of out positions are equally stupid. So there!".
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.
