It was interesting. But I always wonder why scientists try to prove the start of the universe instead of asking if it was just always there, no beginning, no end.

I suggest reading "A brief history of time" by Stephan Hawking. He does a great job explaining exactly that! Among many other things. It is a fascinating read. His "new" book might do a better job. I'm not sure.

I always thought the same thing until I actually decided to do some research on it.

There is LOTS of evidence pointing to the big bang.
