Although the Big Bang theory has a reputation as a godless argument, I’ve pointed out that it was actually first proposed by a Catholic priest, Georges LeMaitres, two years before Edwin Hubble first observed that the universe was in a state of expansion.

Actually, I believe it was the Jewish sage Maimonedes who 800-900 years earlier proposed the Big Bang.

Maybe, but I don't think it was accepted as scientific fact until about a century ago. I mean, actually seeing the evidence made it more or less indisputable.
