Ecclesiastes 8:16-17

 ¹⁶ When I gave my heart to know wisdom and to see the task which has been done on the earth (even though one should never sleep day or night), ¹⁷ and I saw every work of God, I concluded that man cannot discover the work which has been done under the sun. Even though man should seek laboriously, he will not discover; and though the wise man should say, “I know,” he cannot discover.

The problem with the battle between the Atheist Big Bang Evolutionary Science vs. God Spoke and Created Science debate is the question of how did either one actually happen.  As we see here, no one will ever know.  We may have faith that God spoke the universe into existence, but the details as to how it came to be will never be known.  We are incapable of ever figuring that out.  We can never prove the atheist Big Bangers wrong because we will never have the knowledge to do so.  Of course, the same can be said for them.  The origins of the space in which the universe Big Banged into is a complete mystery to them.  They simply cannot explain it at all.  They adhere to the Big Bang, but will never know the exact details.  They may adhere to life coming from primordial ooze, but, again, they will never know the details.  Although they wish to speak scientifically, this is a question of faith.  The science isn’t there, nor will it ever be.  Do not get trapped into that argument; it is a waste of time.  Much of Ecclesiastes is about not wasting time.
