Okay let's look at the argument.

The big bang happened.
Something had to make it happen.
A certain deity made it happen.

So far it seems okay if you disregard the infinite regression it created. But now, here comes the excess baggage.

The deity is omnipotent. Why hypothesise that?
The deity is omniscient. Why?
The deity is omnipresent. How? Why?
The deity is benevolent. Why?
The deity is intelligent and aware of our existence. Why?
The same could be said for your theory.

you claim the Deity is a blind, unknowing force. Why?

we all have theories on the nature of whatever God, Goddess, or Thing created us. The omnipotence and omnicience makes sense if you believe that the being is self aware. and as for benevolence, because he/she created us, and is like a father/mother to us.
