> The Big Bang theory has been disproved, evolution has been disproved,

Evolution hasn't been disproved any more than it was proven in the first place. But to my mind the evidence against it is as overwhelming as the evidence for it was once thought to be.

As for the Big Bang, I don't know of any evidence in existence that would seem to contradict it. The more we learn about the universe, the more it seems to make sense. We know, for example, that the universe is expanding, and it's expanding such that objects further away from the approximated origin of the Big Bang are traveling faster away from it than objects nearer it -- exactly what happens in any explosion that propels matter away from it.

Personally, I think the Big Bang theory, and the lack of a viable alternative, is strong evidence for the existence of a divine Creator. It's a perfectly ridiculous theory unless part of it is that God caused it to happen. "There was nothing, and then a universe boomed into existence." Uh huh. Sure.
