Center of the universe???

The "ask the astronomer" site says there is no center to the universe. I'm not
an astrophysicist, but if the universe is expanding, and the universe was
formed by a big bang. There must be a point of origination. I'm losing a debate
with a creationist over this one point.

If there is, it's so far away to be unseeable. What they have found is vast
groups of galaxies that form like walls, as if they are on the surface of
bubbles and no matter which way they look, they find the same thing.

But then again, I think I saw it here someplace within my trailer. ;}

Does the surface of a sphere have a center? Or a starting point? If we =
can understand
and accept a ball without a starting point, why not the universe?
