"It seems to me that, outside of some new revealed information directly from the Creator, which will probably have to wait until Jesus returns, big bang nucleosynthesis is the unbelievers’ attempt to explain the observed universe without God. Because, if you could explain everything about this universe just with the laws of physics then you could feel more justified in saying that ‘this is all there is’. Of course, this is the definition of materialism—which is assumed a priori. But note what this worldview leads to, the invention of new particles (axions, sterile neutrinos and other forms of Dark Matter), and new forms of energy (Dark Energy that drives the supposed acceleration of the expansion of the universe). None of these are found in laboratory experiments. Yet this is not a small correction, but these new forms allegedly comprise as much as 96% of the mass-energy content of the universe. This is so bizarre, it is hard to believe that anyone believes it—such is the commitment to materialism."

The process of science inevitably runs into phenomena we understand poorly or not at all. If you wish to cordon off the discrepancies and attribute them to God, you not only produce an ever-shrinking "God of the gaps", you also stall the expansion of human knowledge.
Moreover, God does not explain natural phenomena - instead he excuses refusal to explain.
"the unbelievers' attempt to explain the observed universe without God"
Does God explain the observed universe?
Who created him?
And if it is OK for God to "just be" without further explanation, why is it not OK for reality to "just be" ?
