When someone comments on the craziness of theories about before the big bang (and therefore the cause to which it was an effect), it is always worth remembering that the big bang itself was considered crazy by many initially.
The name even came from a dismissive description (with massive vocal air-quotes around "big bang") that just stuck as it is actually a good description (at least by dint of being catchy).
Crazy does not necessarily mean something is incorrect.
