It's surprisingly compatible with the Christian view of creation.
But then Lemaître was also a Catholic priest, so perhaps not so surprising really that his scientific theorising might have an element of theological basis.
While the science is mostly heading in the direction of his theory, it's kind of like the concept is so enormous, with so much information impossible to capture at present, that almost any brilliant theory could be presented and evidence to support it could be found...
...but of course that would depend on more brilliant theories being developed and indeed taken seriously.
And it may be that this brilliant theory with heavy reference to theological concepts takes us all the way to an answer or even a new discovery.
