      You’re right – some people believe that God created the Earth, others that the Big Bang did, others that God created the Big Bang etc. The answer is that we’ll never really kjnow, but as scientists our ideas have to based on what we have observed and can prove. In technical terms, the idea of God is ‘non-falsifiable’ – that means we can’t design an experiment to test whether God exists or not.
