It seems to me, no matter whether you argue science or religion, or some mixture of the two, you always get back to something that had to be there "forever."

The Big Bang created both space
and time (the spacetime continuum). So there was literally no "before" before the Big Bang. Time itself did not exist.
This is an intrinsically difficult concept to grasp for most people.
