Then you get into the God of the Gaps argument, which, as I've said, probably isn't something you want to actually make. It's a really damning sort of position to take, seeing that as the gaps are filled, it leaves less and less space for the "god".
But is the Big Bang not just a theory? Things are left as theories until proved through experiments...I think.

Indeed though, Science fills tons of those gaps. But true origin is still left unexplained and probably can't be explained.
