Do you really want to start a Creationism vs. Evolution debate?

Your questions poses several challenges. One has to accept either the big bang theory or God in order to wrap his or her brain around the universe. Problem is neither defines or substantiates the cause or the effect theory of the universe. If you buy the argument that at least one theory must hold true, God or big bang, then you're leaving out possiblities for other explanations insofar as there must be an explanation (or cause if you will,) for the universe.
Other thing is I think that God has been presented to conveniently provide all easy answers that we all seek. Outstanding! It's actually brilliant. When in doubt or at a loss, think God.
Big big however was presented as a plausible explanation for WHEN we think the masses of atoms that's visible to our eyes or even imaginations began to take shape, whether they are star sytems or farthest object on the edge of the known universe (Hubble has actually seen it. I have seen it too.)
Now we're onto the subject of time. Physics is hard at work attempting to eliminate our conception of time and therefore our natural tendecy to question the beginnig or the end of time: think infiniti in both directions. Should that happen, it might even be better than the God theory.
Nature, if we can use the term to describe all things in existence, has its own delimma: does everything exist to serve a purpose? My things is no. There is no grand master plan, and no matter how much I spin that very same question, I'll never know what it's like to experience a front row seat when our sun explodes into a supernova and becomes a quasar. I'm curious where my atoms will be when that does actually happen.
Ultimately, here's a more interesting question: how does anything or anyone create something out of nothing? We apes have figured out how to change things to make them into other things (iron into an engine inside a Farrari or plastic into Pamela's boobs.) But we havent' figured out how to make something completely disappear. Take a spoon. Think about how far you can break it down into the sum of its current parts. No matter what though, it can never disappear into absolutely nothing.
Nor have we or anyone or anything else has figured out how to make something, anything, out of absolutely nothing.
I'm already hungry again: Pass the freakin gravy!

Why must everything have a cause?
What if the cause is just to exist, and have a good time of it?
Really, the Big Bang is about as scientifically provable as Creationism. We assume that the Universe has had a life-span, a beginning and an end. How do we know that? It's all just speculation - the thin line that separates astronomy and philosophy is an anal sense of rightness, and fancy instruments.
But, yes, to your question; in essence, you ask why we exist. And the word "we" refers very specifically to humans.
So, yeah. I don't have an answer. Neither does anyone else.

Creation occurs when energy bits explode and
interface with invisible forces we know as Laws
Of Physics. This is God's hand at work.
One of these laws states that if all energy was
to wind down and stand still, said energy would
explode into a Big Bang. This theory replaces
the magic bean or magic atom theory of a
hundred years ago.
Today, we know that planets are not chips off
of stars, and children come through their
parents, not from their parents.
All creation comes from a quantum zone. And,
all creation forms have two stages: quantum
and particle.
Quarks make atoms and atoms create the
time and space.
Why would two people show up in a vast
universe?
Because, that's the way creation works. If
it worked some other way, it would be some
other way.
I hope this is somewhat helpful.

God created the vastness of space because he could. It is suspected that the universe is infinite, that is only a representation of how big God is. Think of how beautiful the universe is, that is only a fingerprint of how beautiful God is. Romans 1:20 says that as God did create such amazing, beautiful wonders, humans have no reason not to wonder if there is a God. Could all of this beauty have just happened?

1. In Qur'an says that God built Universe from nothing and Big Bang was an explosion caused by God (who caused the God?)
-I thing that big bang theory is true because exists some facts.
-But one thing is true, more than we understand, more are the questions. The answer maybe is in deep think!

One could state that the cause of the Big Bang was God, but then who created God?
Mark Twain brings up a similar arguement about how much time God spent on creating earth and how little time he spent on creating the rest of the universe. If you're interested, check out "The Bible According to Mark Twain."

Nice question well worded, be very opposing, and of course its meant to be that way. But one question if everything that begins to exist must have a cause, then who/what caused GOD, that's the one thing creationist seem to leave out, just watch one of them beat around the subject, its the same way evolutionist do when debating on the subject of what caused the big bang, or what blew up.
Here's how i see it, maybe both happened at the same time, maybe both happened for the in the same time, out of a yerning to create, and to be created and shaped

Explaining the unknown with another unknown is using CAVEMAN logic....it reminds me of the movie “The Gods Must Be Crazy,” a native in the Kalahari Desert encounters technology for the first time--in the shape of a Coke bottle. I found this to be very amusing, but I also began to see parallels between his thought process, and that of the modern day Theist. Both are using CAVEMAN LOGIC to explain their world. I fail to see the difference between “hmm, bottle fall from sky, must be gods” and “hmm, trees and butterflies prove the existence of god.”
In both of these cases, someone is simply replacing one unknown for another unknown, but proving nothing!
Not only can God not be proven, but I will also go so far as to say that God can be disproved. It is impossible for something to be all knowing and all good. If you are aware that something bad is going to happen, and you allow it to happen anyway, then you cannot be all good. If God created everything, then he also created evil. It is also impossible to be all-powerful; can God create a rock that even he himself cannot move?
I would have thought that as man became more knowledgeable and logical that he would have pushed aside his caveman beliefs, but it seems to be just the opposite.

This is a great start.And I also believe God exists outside our time and space observing life.But cause is so simple a concept God wills the very elements to be what they are.and is not limited with time, meaning past present and future are all just a view.when astronomers look light years away are they there or here. creation is thought. evolution is mutation. and says all life mutated from the mud.I dont think so.

At least you know you have too small brain on this very small earth planet to understand about God's power of creation such a vast Universe. who knows, the Universe, you think vast is also very small as an invisible dust under God's power. like when you see the ants are proud of their capability of building their ant hills, in your eyes it is nothing worth. Since we have not a drastic power to justify or argue about creation, like ants, better shut our mouths and do what we can do in this life at our best is the only way to live with healthy intellect.
