You see science demands evidence. Faith requires belief. Science says we do not have EVIDENCE as to what happened before the big bang so we do not address it. Belief says, plug in the deity of our choice. I might add what makes you believe your favorite deity is the appropriate choice?? Science does not just plug in “magic” when they haven’t the evidence, faith does, and often ignores evidence.

And there's a popular saying that "if it can't be tested, it cannot be trusted". Religion is scared of being tested, it doesn't like it. It's meant for the weak.

It's always unintelligent or irrational to accept claims without evidence, it doesn't matter if it's in religion on other spheres of life.

It would have made more sense if you had a good depth and a sound philosophical mind that's stable enough to consistently address specifics in religion rather than just blabbering around like a disgruntled beast whose prey was seized from its jaws.

The only category of people credible enough to discuss religion are either highly intelligent philosophers (who already did) or highly regarded scientists (especially physicists). Guess what? Among these two category of people, there are highly religious individual.

So have your field day. Not everything in science is rational anyway. At least, quantum physics is telling us something similar.

philosophical mind like "we don't know hence God did it".
Sounds like a fallacy to me.

I would rather humbly admit that I don't know instead of shamelessly look for philosophical grounds to insert a personal God
