Glory to gob.  RAmen

the common candards, as usual. All Lemons are citrus, mushrooms are not citrus. Its not special pleading . This isn’t special pleading because there is a category difference. God is not in the same category as the creation. God is in a league of His own. He is… the great I AM.

And no. No false dichotomy. Either there is an eternal creator, or not. How it is rational to claim there isn't, and that the universe sprang up out of nothing, is beyond me.

You seemed confused. I never once said the universe came from nothing.

It is fact, however, That the universe sprang forth from a cosmic pre-time kegger FSM threw.

May his noodles grant you the truth once day.

RE: Being cannot come from Non-being
Is this one done for? OP, did you feel as though offering your beliefs, with no information beyond a description of your beliefs, was a sufficient case for those beliefs?

Can we get nuts and bolts info on why you would think that..? Your inability to provide this as regards those previous issues was and is understandable, but here..on the subject of why you thought this would be productive...your own (apparent) belief, I expect you to be something of an expert.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

How does the eternal creator do its creating?
What is the process it uses?
Where does it get the stuff to create with?

I want evidence to support your answer....and ...go.

If god exists, given your parameters, he must have been created. Thus who created god?

Or is it turtles all the way down?

Finally, why my philosophy of admitting ignorance is more honest and honourable than yours of simply making shit up:

PS Otangelo, stop plagarising from other people's works.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
