I can't see in how far you have brought my argument above to fall. The concept of god lies beyond the concept of reason. You can't prove it, you have to believe it. Thats nothing bad, its just like it is.

Evolution is not a "lie". Its a scientific theory based on scientific methods, thats a completely different category as "truth" or "lie" are. As such it belongs to the most important theories of the current time and also to one of the most confirmed ones as well. Many scientific theories like for example the one about gravity are standing on a much shakier basis.

Big Bang on the other side is just one of the possible scenarios, while it is the most commonly drawn one, its not in the position to be the sole viable scientific theory. It has nothing to do with the evolution theory btw.
