The whole theory of the Big Bang as the point of creation for the universe falls down on one simple point. This is the fact that for an explosion to occur it needs something to explode into. If nothing existed before the Big Bang then there was no platform for the explosion to have taken place. In which case it means that if such an enormous bang had once occurred it could only have done so within the framework of a setting which was every bit a part of the physical world as the universe is today. In other words the Big Bang exploded into a physical universe that was already extant before it occurred. Either way this proves that the Big Bang could not have been responsible for the creation of all matter.

The Big Bang theory is only one theory of how the Universe came to be. There are others and you don't have to choose only one to believe or disprove. Some believe God created it others believe it has always been what it is and is always going to be that way. Either way it is a personal choice whether to believe or not

It does not fall on that point.
The name "Big Bang" was given to the theory by the proponents of the other big theory at the time: Steady State (Hoyle and his buddies). The name was picked because it would cause people to think that there was an explosion and, as we know, an explosion was impossible. They were hoping that by planting the idea of an explosion, they would discredit the theory.
It is rather an expansion of the universe.
As for "waht does it expand into" (equivalent to your question of what does it explode into), the answer is simple: itself.
The latest observations from WMAP indicate that universe is most probably infinite. If that is the case, then it does not need anything to expand into. It expands into itself.
It does not matter how far you pick a starting point and by how much you expand the universe, its destination distance was already inside the unverse before the expansion.
The "explanation" you provide used to be kicked around until 1965 when the Steady State Theory died.

This is the problem with your proof: "... for an explosion to occur it needs something to explode into." You will need to prove that statement before anyone can agree with you.
The Big Bang was not an explosion like a bomb exploding. It did not create the matter in the universe out of nothing. The Big Bang was (and still is) an expansion of the universe, and the transformation of whatever the universe was at the beginning into the matter and energy that exist today was a part of the process.

Part of the point of the big bang, is that all of space/time expanded out from the point of the explosion, along with all of the matter etc exploding into space/time.
While it is not "provable", it is highly likely that the entire universe did explode out from some point.
Now - what interests me is this - was there previously another universe that eventually imploded in upon itself to a single point (all of matter/space/time in a location with no size), and that point was what blew up as our big bang? If so, then we are living in a recycled reality.

What you are disproving is not the Big Bang theory but your own misrepresentation of it. You are quite correct that the Big Bang as you (mis)understand it could not have happened.
The Big Bang was a singularity that grew spatial dimensions and became the universe. It was nothing like a common explosion; the "Bang" in the theory's name was intended to be derisive, not descriptive.

Even I think so. It is completely pointless that universe is result of expansion of single point which is smaller than your fingertip. Even if there was movement of planets to current position it requires conscious being to do so. Can they explain why ozone is only on earth in such a way that it protects us? They talk about EVOLUTION THEORY then why dont todays monkey evolve??
They speak of mumbo-jumbo things to confuse people but I think whole world has wasted a lot of money on this project.

You need to stop asking ignorant sheep questions that they don't know the real answers to, and learn about the Jesuit order. They are the reason why we are being lied to every single day of our lives. I don't know if the big bang theory is BS, but it is true that NASA is all fraud. All of the world is doing nothing in space, and nuclear weapons don't even exist. We have global controllers, and they are our enemies.

You have absolutely no knowledge of what you are talking about. All of your statements are wrong based on the (limited) knowledge you have of the world we see today. It was a tad different 13.8 billon years ago...
The Big Bang wasn´t even an explosion. It was the beginning of an expansion that continues today. We can see it. We can measure it. Come up with some scientific facts that disputes this and maybe someone will listen to you.

I've been surfing online more than 2 hours today searching for answer to the same question, yet I haven't found a more interesting debate like this. It is pretty worth enough for me.

thats not quite what the big band theory says now as I understand it. The big bang is more like a big expansion where space is expanding from its compressed state , more like if you squashed a foam rubber block into a thimble and then released it ,
