Biblical support for the 'Big bang'

I used to think the big bang was not biblical..

It's Catholic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georges_Lema%C3%AEtre

I think I prefer the Big Curtain.

As to how long it took just say well how long is a piece of string?

Oh sure... now you bring in string theory.

Agreed it goes against principles of physics. You can't create something out of nothing we are told. Yet the big bang theory requires this before the big bang occurs.

Not really, the hypothesis of Catholic Priest Georges Lemaître which became known as the Big Bang Theory is that all space, matter and energy rapidly expanded from a primordial atom from a highly condensed state to form our presently known and observed universe. The BBT didn't create anything, everything in the universe was in that primordial atom.

The other day a kid about 8 years old asked me what I thought of the big bang.

All I know is the planets are travelling in a way that shows they came from an initial point. A beginning event.

I used to think the big bang was not biblical.. but now in think if you look at Genesis in God creating the universe..

Something akin to a 'big bang' would make sense.

I guess the debate is around how long that took and whether it was something from nothing or God created..

I don't have any problem believing that God used the big bang to create the universe as shown in this video
