Likewise for a supposedly omniscient and omnipotent God to suddenly, at some specific point in time, decide it would be a cool thing to do to create a universe whereas the idea had never occurred to him prior to that moment, is basically idiotic and it doesn't even matter whether the moment in time was 6000 or 17 billion years ago.
Big Bang is junk science, nearly as bad as evolution itself.
That's what I keep saying.
You are talking as if that God were within the arc of time rather than outside it. An author of a book does not need to dwell in the timeline of the book he writes, nor is he subject to it. I don't think any competent theologians think that God is so limited within the timeline of the nature we live in.
It matters. The LORD gave us His account in The Bible. The creation account in The Bible is directly tied into every other doctrine and intrinsic interpretation of the entire Bible. It is foundational, as it is plainly written. If people were really studying Scripture, praying for and with God's Spirit guiding, they would see this in a crystal clear manner. Are you?
I always found it odd that once scientists came up with the BIG BANG theory, there wasn't enough 'matter' in the 'known and detected' Universe to support their theory. That's when they came up with Dark Matter and Dark Energy (otherwise known as 'the Dark Side of the Force').
