Oh, my. Lets see what my pea brain can come up with. How about this: "Let there be light" was the spoken command of God, a sentient entity, which created light from nothing. The big bang, in over simplified terms, was produced when a "singularity" exploded for, as yet, unknown reasons, expelling vast quantities of energy as light, heat, matter,etc.
In the first scenario, the religious one, a supreme entity lights the fuse, essentially. In the second, spontaneous combustion. No supernatural entities were involved.

Well?
