Well, the reason that science can give no direct answer on what happened before the big bang is because science at the moment does not know. Now, to conclude from that that therefore god must have created it, is a non sequitur, it does not follow.
But apart from that, one could explore other possible explanations that don't involve gods who create vastly oversized universes to experiment with kid cancer on humans on a hilarious tiny planet. These days we want some sustainable solutions. Mind you, science is not telling us it has found absolute truth but with some extrapolation it can give possible alternatives to divine creation. To give you just three:
1) our universe might be embedded in an everlasting superuniverse that somehow cycles universes in it interior
2) our universe might be in an everlasting cycle of birth and death (don't mind the human analogies)
3) our universe might be a finite patch in an infinite universe
None of these possibilities are ruled out by current scientific findings.
Just three possibilities that show that there is no necessity to bring on petty gods with bad humour.
But if this is too much thinking for you, just put on your red shoes, plug in your petty god and be gone.
