And how exactly does "god" explain it? "faith" does not belong in science; give some evidences or stop making ridiculous claims. At least scientists are honest and they don't claim to know something they don't.
For those who are interested in a scientific answer to his question, there are researches being done to give us an idea of what the universe was like before the "bang". m-theory has some speculative ideas (multi-verses, higher dimensions; all the math is there) and scientists are constantly doing experiments in particle accelerators. There will be some exciting news on this subject once the large hadron collider becomes operational in france within next few years... till then we just have to sit tight....

Whatever caused the universe to progress from its original, hot, dense state, calling it "God" isn't really an explanation at all.
It begs the question "What happened before God?" and the usual answer "God is eternal" or anything like that, is just empty metaphysical mumbo-jumbo.
in other words, saying its "God" is just a cop-out. Wait for science to come up with a better explanation. The ancients couldn't explain lightning, so "Zeus" was the only cause the could think of. Now we know better.

There is a theory that the universe still existed before the Big Bang but collapsed on itself (aka, the "Big Crunch") causing the intense pressures and heat that caused another Big Bang. If so, then who knows how many times that has happened because all evidence would have been destroyed.

Astrophysics has reached today is that the entire universe, together with the dimensions of matter and time, came into existence as a result of a great explosion that occurred a long time ago. This event, known as "The Big Bang," is the catalyst for the creation of the universe from nothingness. This explosion, all parties in the scientific community agree, emanated from a single point some 15 billion years ago. (See Harun Yahya, The Creation of the Universe, Al-Attique Publishers Inc. Canada, 2000)
Before the Big Bang, there was no such thing as matter. From a condition of non-existence in which neither matter, nor energy, nor even time existed-and which can only be described metaphysically-matter, energy, and time were all created in an instant.

I happen to think that time is circular as opposed to linear. I think the Big Bang occurs and then the expansion of the universe occurs to the point at which it can no longer be sustained and then collapses again, at which point another bang occurs and the cycle repeats itself.
But, what do I know :-p

Im confused about this whole "Big Bang" theory as well. They say that nothing existed, so if nothing existed than what exploded?

Nothing. Just a spark and there was the universe. Just no space, no time, no gas, no life, no gravity. It's hard for people to imagine.
