Would seeing the sea part make you believe in God?
That would only imply that my delusions say thousands of other people saw it at the same time.

God can violate physics. After all, he created physics.
He did? Where's the proof?

The universe should still be packed into that black hole because of gravity. The big bang shouldn't have happened. God made it happen.
You have no idea what you're talking about. There is no satisfactory physical theory that could explain what happens at a singularity.

Er, by definition, if you break a rule, it's not technically a "rule" anymore
You see, if the laws of physics changed, whether by god or any other means, we would cease to exist. We can only exist with the laws of physics we have. There's just no getting around it!

How does that follow? How does Big Bang prove your god? What evidence is there that your god made Big Bang happen?

What makes you think the big bang came from a black hole? Anyway, if god made it happen, how can he be part of it? To be part of the universe that you made would be to create oneself

Something cannot come from nothing, so the fact that we are here today should be proof enough that God is out there.
Why do you assume there was ever "nothing?"

What do you think? The urge to crush some creationists, of course.

There is no way to tell what there was before the big bang. It is purely an assumption that the big bang was created from nothing. In fact, it's more likely that everything existed in non-dimensional space. There is evidence of this today, as at the quantum level, particles can be considered to be "non-local". There is a disparity between the macro universe and the micro-universe. The big bang may have been the creation of this disparity. I haven't gone into details, but i can if you want.
Importantly, time is dimensional, so perhaps time didn't exist before the big bang. If there was no time, can there possibly be a time *before* the big bang?
