it makes the theologians look foolish.

Kinda like polywater, cold fusion, piltdown man, mars orbiter, mars polar lander, Lucy, etc. etc.

And although I believe the Big Bang is the explanation for the formation of the universe, the observables are artifact not direct.

I don't really get your point. It's true, science sometimes follows false leads, and then discovers the errors and corrects for them. This is no occasion to stick out your tongue and go: "Nyah, nyah, nyah!!" Rather, the capacity to discover error, admit it, and the willingness to bypass false hypotheses is part of the great strengths of science.

None of which were refuted by theologians.
