The Bible is the only ancient text that have accurately described the Big Bang theory of the origin of the universe.

Yes, of course. The Big Bang is supported by the weight of the evidence.
Scientific theories depend on whether the evidence supports, not who came with them. (This is one of the major differences between science and religion, it is understandable that you may have trouble understanding that one.) Whether the Big Bang was designed by Charles Manson or Jeffrey Dahlman, is the idea that is important, not the person who thought so.
Look at it another way: the idea that everything consists of atoms was developed by Democritus, over a thousand years BC. Democritus was a pagan, but has no problem accepting the idea of atoms, molecules, etc, I guess. That's because the concept of atoms was closed at the evidence. It survived all (or most) of which is tested and proven so important is very useful. Has been extremely useful to modern science and engineering, chemistry, genetics, medicine, and many other fields are built in part on the atomic theory. And indeed, it would not be able to split the atom if the atoms do not exist.

The fact that it was thought by preist does not mean that I can not believe that the concept of the Big Bang is well designed and fairly logical explanation of things. Gregor Mendel was a priest and he is often called the father of genetics, because of his brilliant discovery of dominant and recessive traits.

The validity of a scientific theory is not based on the validity of the beliefs of scientists from the foundation, but the validity of the scientific evidence demonstrated .. The founder of a scientific theory can believe in flying purple baboon who spent their days to dance the tango for all I care, if the theory presented argues that the scientific method of theory is valid …

Lamaitre also an astrophysicist who proposed the theory that explains all the available evidence. Made testable predictions that proved to be very precise and it is supported by a large amount of evidence.
The Big Bang is a good science and Lamaitre was a good scientist.

Religion does not restrict the fact that some people are just born to be great minds. (Just too many in the world think they are great when they are not!)
I'm not fully with the big bang, but I think it's a good possibility. While the answers to which could be something that we never intended and can never think of …

Yes You have now achieved the status of established science, which explains all the phenomena of implementation and also predicts the occurrence of deuterium and lithium in the universe - which could not have been created in any other way.

Agree. No, I do not care what the religion is of the insanely intelligent person who developed it.
Heck, Pythagoras created his own religion, which do not allow people to eat beans, but that does not mean I'm going to doubt that a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 = c ^ 2

Do not waste your time asking what they think atheists. Have not yet begun to think.
If they did would be amazed at the creation.
The man's perception of the universe is false.
God spiritually. The universe is something spiritual, not material.

Im not sure if I do .. i need to research more … but one thing is certain … I do not believe that some supreme being created the universe and, for some reason, only human beings created to worship him and .. apparently we are not perfect, but …. and therein lies the problem … something perfect can not create something imperfect ..
