Is that what Christianity is about? The explanation of our existence? I thought it was about the meaning of our existence. Those are two different questions. By debating the scientific theories, you are hinging your religion on the absolutely retarded literal story of Genesis (so retarded in fact that even St Augustine in 600 AD recognized that it shouldn't be taken literally).
It's a question of why versus how. Evolution/Big Bang doesn't pretend to answer why. Christianity's literal answer of how makes no sense. What's the point of this argument? It seems you should be pointing out the obvious - Christianity answers questions that evolution doesn't even address. Spirituality, forgiveness, fulfillment, heavenly reward, etc. Isn't that why people are Christians? Or is it really because it answers scientific questions on our history?

In no way am I doing that. I believe in the Big Bang. My question is what started something from nothing? It's beyond our understanding IMO.

It is actually.
Which is why my first post pages back said it was more about shared values/morals/actions.
