Actually, Genesis describes how God created things in a way the boggles the mind. I'm a bit of a fanatic about creation and a bit of a hater on the big bang.
Here's the thing about creation according to the Word - everything that God created was created fully developed and mature (trees already able to bear fruit, adult animals able to produce offspring, sun-moon-stars already giving light). God created a mature universe that was "mid-stride" at the point of creation and continues as He created it.
In the big-bang, all of mass was chaotically spewed from a central point. It just happened that concentrations of chaotic mass gathered together and formed the astronomical bodies (some formed stars, other bits formed planets, still others formed moons, asteroids, etc.). And yet, although they "formed" from many scattered bits, they "behaved" considerably differently then you would expect. As they gathered together into form, they continued to move away from their central point of origin, instead of becoming stationary objects. Other objects began to revolve around other objects. And from chaos, an intricate and precise mechanism was formed...that was still moving uniformly away from a central point...and still behaving with precision. And scientists have the gall to call us ignorant.
