However once the Big Bang was discovered and confirmed. Christians didn't throw out there creation story. That's the difference. Once you figure out something is wrong. You throw it out and come up with a better way.
While having no argument with the Lemaître theory (later confirmed by Edwin Hubble's observations) that the universe was expanding, Hoyle disagreed on its interpretation. He found the idea that the universe had a beginning to be pseudoscience, resembling arguments for a creator, "for it's an irrational process, and can't be described in scientific terms"

Is Jesus God?
And where does the Bible confirm that seeing is believing regardless of a thief who was hung with Jesus?

Yes. (although some would disagree with that)

I don't understand the question. Please rephrase. Thanks. (or start a new thread on this because it may be getting off topic from the original theme ... I'm not sure)
