Let's not be too hard on SOQ
SOQ is a student. From the nature of the posts, I can see that he is probably a high school student at that (my apologies if I am incorrect, SOQ). So first, welcome. Second, SOQ, I would bet a dollar to a doughnut that you are cutting and pasting from another creationist website, or alternatively you are regurgitating something your pastor told you, right? Here's a point: Would you go to a physicist for advice and interpretation of the bible? If not, don't go to a minister for his interpretation of the Big Bang. Physics is a complicated subject. I would suggest that you take a good high school level course in it as a first step so that you can understand some of the basic principles. Then I would suggest reading some of the great popular books on the Big Bang: The First Three Minutes by Steven Weinberg, The Moment of Creation by James Trefil, A Brief History of Time by Steven Hawking and there are many others. This is not to say that you need a Ph.D. in physics to understand the subject (you do if you want to understand the mathematical underpinnings), but you do need to understand the concepts and evidence before making up your mind.
Good luck. And keep posting what you have been told are objections to the big bang cosmology. They make for entertaining reading at the least. Just don't believe everything a minister tells you about evolution and cosmology.
