Yes it is, it is a problem of induction and causes a lot of issues in science. The BB can also validate atheist's views due to causality principles. An issue with the BB is that we hit a brick wall in which only mathematical models work. These days people just tack God onto the mathematical models which violates Occam's razor. No one bothers trying to provide a mathematical model for God. Hence why God is part of philosophy and not science.
'Nature is the executor of God's laws' (Galileo) it's not a new observation that those laws operate on precise mathematical principles.
similarly any atheist creation story behind the big bang, multiverse theory, M theory etc is philosophical speculation at best. It's not difficult to make a theory fit the math when you are unencumbered by any observational evidence to comply with.. static, eternal, steady state, big crunch also fit the math, just not observed reality as it turned out.
The composition of the primeval atom has to be accounted for somehow, it's debatable which violates Occam's razor more- an infinite probability machine, an infinite number of monkeys working at infinite keyboards for infinity until they accidentally create the world we see around us... or just one purposeful author
