Popular podcaster Joe Rogan continued his openness to faith during two recent episodes, affirming belief in the resurrection of Christ while also expressing skepticism about the Big Bang theory. Rogan made the comments during a discussion with comedy podcast host Cody Tucker over the origins of the universe.

"Who made all that? Like, is there a God? Did God make this?" Tucker asked.

"Or is God the universe?" Rogan asked.

"But then, who made God? And then that bothers me," Tucker responded.

Rogan, though, questioned if the human understanding of creation is limited by humanity's finiteness.

"Is that a thing that we think that -- because we were born and we die, that we have these biological limitations that we attach to the universe itself?" Rogan asked.

"That's fair," Tucker responded, "that we see things as being built and destroyed."

Rogan then turned to the Big Bang. The Christian Post first reported Rogan's comments.

"[The late ethnobotanist] Terence McKenna had a great line about the difference between science and religion is that science only asks you for one miracle. 'I want you to believe in one miracle, the Big Bang.' It's a great line, because it really is true," Rogan said. "And it's funny, because people would be incredulous about the resurrection of Jesus Christ, but yet they're convinced that the entire universe was smaller than the head of a pin and for no reason than anybody's adequately explained to me, it instantly became everything."

"I can't buy that," Tucker said.

"I'm sticking with Jesus on that one. Jesus makes more sense," Rogan said, smiling.

Rogan has increasingly engaged in conversations about faith. In January, apologist Wesley Huff joined the show to explore the historical and biblical evidence for the cornerstone of the Christian faith. Around the same time, he also welcomed filmmaker Mel Gibson, and the two discussed the evidence for Christ's resurrection.
