The problem is imho that these proposals, insofar they are concrete enough to even be addressed, only shift the problem. Creating something is a uniquely temporal concept which we have formed based on various observations in our universe. To be able to say that this universe itself is created in its entirety, including our time itself, one needs another concept of time to which this creation refers. One can then ask the same thing of that 'divine' time, where did it come from. Most answers though are vague and merely repeat the question with more words. None I've seen scrolling through really address the issue what it could possibly mean to say that a creator god exists outside time - and precise clarification is needed or otherwise the statement is meaningless.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
