Post New creation theory

Hi guys, I had something to share with all of you. Recently, a friend of mine(a christian) which I had known for quite some time suddenly told me that the big bang theory was actually wrong and that his church has the correct version of how an universe began.
This is what he told me, ' Before the creation began, the universe was kept in a virtual and unchanging state. When God had decided to create the universe at all, HE made all the virtual planets, stars and particles manifested into real object. In short, everything was set in place in some parts of the universe already before creation rather than from a point(singularity) and it is only when GOD intervene then everything started to appear and move.'
Well guys, this is damn funny, I know but I don't wish to embarrass my friend by refuting him in front of others. Anyway, this is just something to share with all of you of the church's latest 'persudo-creation' theory.

Talking

No point of course in asking if there's the tiniest bit of evidence for this 'hypothesis'... but it might be worth asking where in the scriptures it mentions this though! If it ain't in the bible, why deny science's (evidentially-based) version?

Maybe mention that I have fairies at the bottom of my garden. I have, honest! Promise. Double-promise!

Does he believe everything he's told?
