Fine, the world was created with the big bang. Who or what created the big bang?

“Who or what created the big bang?”

Exactly. And why? What was there before the ‘big bang’?

And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? What shall I say unto them? And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shall thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. Exodus 3:13-14. "This distinctive name of god identifies Him as the one who is eternally self-existent. All created entities have a beginning, including time itself (Genesis 1:1.). As creatures, we must reckon in terms of the past and future, but to the Creator of time, all is present. He is transcendent to time as well as space." This is not pagan mythology with a never-ending king of the heavens such as Zeus, or wait, Cronos. This is real expository truth if you want to accept it. "The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law." Deut. 29:29.

We are finite and there is only so much we can understand, and much we cannot, those are the secret things we will never know in our lifetime. To demand an answer is one thing, to expect one and understand it is another. (The first quote is by Henry Morris.)

didn’t ya hear? Hawkins says there needn’t have been a catalyst.

could have been just expanding and contracting over and over forever.

” Who or what created the big bang?”

I’m sure you would say God.

But then one can ask who created God.

Believing that something always existed is just as tough as believing that something came out of nothing.

Of course one can believe anything, but as far as knowing, we don’t know. I never understood why people have such a hard time admitting that they don’t know something.
