The "God" figure maybe caused the big bang. The Bible story which is creation, was totally blown out of the water a long time ago.

The book of Genesis, committed to paper 3,500 years ago, says "the stars were made first, then the earth, which was covered with water, then land, then the plants, next animals, and humans last". A modern science book says "the stars were made first, then the earth, which was covered with water, then land, then the plants, next animals, and humans last." Science, at the time of Genesis, had the earth first and stars last, but Genesis said no, the stars came first. Modern science has proven that Genesis was right all along.
Similarly for more modern history. Scientists discovered recently discovered ancient egyptian records off the egyptian army chasing the jews after plagues hit egypt - just as described in Exodus. From what I see, more and more scientific discoveries are confirming the ancient legends. They are, of course, ancient legends and just as the modern commercialized St. Nick doesn't quite match with our understanding of the historical Saint Nick, some misinterpretation over the millenia is to be expected.
