The big bang is a theory, not a scientific law. But it does align with scripture(let there be light).
The rest of the formation of the earth you have is also similar to how it is described in scripture, given it's translated from a completely different style of language.
As far as the age of existence that lead to what we have now; 6 billion years sounds bout right. Of course time isn't a constant and most likely progressed differently close to rapid expansion.
I'm not stuck on pretty. Death is part of life, as is suffering, at this time.
It can even be said that natural disasters, deseases, viruses, cancers, and other pain and suffering not only is so we might learn, but could be pretty much wholly avoidable if we would have adhered to the life giving direction of the One Creator GOD long ago. Still the greed of man plagues all.
Tell you what! Explain to me why the scientific laws are the way they are, and not some other way.
Oh yeah; a black hole is potential on a nearly infinite scale. Pretty telling.
There is also chaos(potential) in each of us.

No, "Theory" in science doesn't mean a "mere guess", in science "Theory" is backed up by repeated testing and observations. And don't pull a bait and switch on me trying to bring the word "law" into this. BOTH "Theory" and "law" are not the laypersons meanings theists like to twist them to mean.
Now again, I really don't give one shit what you try to debunk, if you think you are the only fan of the only "true label" of a religion who tries to pull this crap, you are wasting your time. ALL religions pull this crap. Muslims, and Jews and Hindus and others. When they cant debunk science they end up trying to co opt it to claim it matches their holy writings and their religion.

QUOTE THEORY: "A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is acquired through the scientific method and repeatedly tested and confirmedthrough observation and experimentation
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_law
QUOTE LAW "Laws differ from in that they do not posit a mechanism or explanation of phenomena: they are merely distillations of the results of repeated observation. As such, a law is limited in applicability to circumstances resembling those already observed, and may be found false when extrapolated."
What they DO have in common is this.
QUOTE LAW,"A scientific law is a statement based on repeated experimental observations that describes some aspects of the universe.
BOTH ARE STILL based on repeated collection of data, repeated observation and testing and falsification and peer review.
Nobody's god of the gaps, not yours, not any, are based on scientific method. They are merely the products of human's imaginations.
