The Big Bang Theory is probably the best guess we have as to a scientific start of the universe, but there are so many questions behind it that even I would be tempted to answer "somewhat confident" or possibly even "not too confident." What happens if we Big Crunch to a singularity? Could another Big Bang happen? What if "our" Big Bang was just one of many Big Bangs?
It makes a lot of common sense to me that the existence of the universe is cyclical and not a one-and-done finite ride. The "universe" may have existed before our Big Bang and may continue after all life in the universe is extinguished. We'll probably never know for sure in our lifetimes.
