Does the Big Bang Suggest a Creator God?

No. While God created everything and is present throughout, He is not a part of His creation.

All creation glorifies God by its being and even points to Him. However, one cannot inductively conclude God’s participation (i.e. scientifically) from any part or even the whole of creation.
 
That’s the fun thing about the Big Bang. No one can say. No information from anything that existed prior to the Big Bang would have survived the Big Bang, meaning that this is a finite end to what can be observed scientifically, whether the Big Bang was the finite beginning of all things or only of all things as they now are.
 
Yes. If time, space and matter were created in the Big Bang, it requires an atemporal, nonspatial, immaterial cause

Is there effect without cause?
 
The big bang does suggest a Creator because without a creator, what would have set the Big Bang into motion? What else but an all-powerful being could create everything out of nothing and then cause it all to explode out from a single point?

Those with ears stopped up, who are chanting 'nah nah nah nah nah" Clearly believe in the uncaused effect, but have no science (or would it be non-science, or simply nonsense?) to back up their, um, “belief in unbelief.”
 
“Concerning cosmological evolution, the Church has infallibly defined that the universe was specially created out of nothing. Vatican I solemnly defined that everyone must “confess the world and all things which are contained in it, both spiritual and material, as regards their whole substance, have been produced by God from nothing” (Canons on God the Creator of All Things, canon 5).”

I love the proof of causation. ❤️
 
Human belief is human belief, no way to go around it. Dawkins says that because matter with antimatter produces nothing, voila, nothing exploded and from it there is the entire material world.
I can understand that if you combine matter with antimatter there is a result that can’t be perceived in a “material” experiment, but “nothing exploded” that is really nonsense.

If you are mentioning the Stephen hawking theory that was debunked here it is, from His colleague nonetheless

Roger Penrose doesn’t debunk Hawking’s views of M-theory, at least not in the article you showed. He doesn’t even claim that he can debunk it! He only mentions that M-theory isn’t a theory in the scientific sense, and that presenting it as a scientific theory can be misleading, which is true. However, it can still be a plausible* hypothesis *for how the universe came into existence.

Even so, even if you declare that the M-theory is correct… well, that had to have come from somewhere too. What caused that?

My understanding of Hawking’s theory, and in particular the zero-energy universe, is that the laws of cause and effect only apply in this universe because gravity and mass permeate it and fill it with concentrations of postive and negative energy. If gravity were not around, the laws of cause and effect would not apply, and effects (such as the big bang) could occur without a cause.
