Other means, I don't know,

I,think that we are still figuring that one out on all levels.
I can say though that the universe began for wee little Faust when he came into this existence and will end for this rinkled remnant when he passes out of it.
(We all know that Darwin did not believe in God, yet that does not stop you from quoting him against creationists)

I'm sorry Emu but Darwin was not an atheist, his theories merely came into conflict with the accepted religious beliefs of the time, not unlike Copernicus and Galileo. Not unlike stem-cell research ect....

I voted for "The Genesis creation story is correct" as the other choice "God created the universe" is part of the first selection in this poll I thought having the second is kind of confusing. But now I see that the second choice might be for those who do not believe in the Christian bible. :)

honestly... once again I state that belief in a scientific theory does not mean you can't also believe in Creator. I believe in Creator, I also think that the best evidence shows that the univerce was created via the 'Big Bang'.

I voted "other" because Big Bang theory does not tell us how the universe began, but how it behaved immediately after it began. Currently it is unknown how it began, if in fact it did "begin". The bigger question is why it exists. I'm confident there's a scientific explanation, but less confident that we'll know in my lifetime.

the elements of the big bang?he just created them out of nowhere?and the changing climate?

that's not a scientifically sound statement.by the same measure you claim others are wrong, so are you.

I believe He created the universe. I also believe He created the Big Bang. It even says so in the Qur'an.

how could he have created the big bang? this would imply existence before singularity, which is theoretically impossible. Although acceptance of the big bang is a step in the right direction ^^

The question is unanswerable because we have no scientific description of where God is now or a description of God's nature. Without these, we cannot evaluate the effect of the Big Bang on God.

Yes, the Big Bang theory takes a lot more faith to believe in than creationalism, but then those two thing's are just a little different aren't they? Intelligent design does not cut it for me. I believe that the universe is absolute, sure I can't and won't explain where it came from, but that's just as credible as saying a greater being outside of it created it. That's the fallacy of this debate, neither can be proven, though at least there is observable, objectable evidence of one. Where did the universe come from? I don't know, but where did God come from? At least we know the universe exists.
