Not interested in the religion talk but this requires some explaination
Because at the point of the big bang, infinite values appear and cannot be calculated as yet. Same ith a black hole's infinite gravity.
The big bang actually has several successors because everyone who knows the big bang theory knows its full of flaws that do not gel with data collected in the last 30 years. Its very successful in capturing the public imagination and explaining basic principles but it is 60 years old.
Most of these successors await more information and data. Some are mathematically sound but unprovable as of now such, as the multiverse theory. For more information about the successors such as the universal brane concept
