DoubtVsFaith Wrote:Exactly - and I already explained how the only alternative is the assumption that God is necessary (it is an assumption because you could say the same about the universe).

Thanks for the clarification that by "necessary" you mean "not needing a cause". In case of any potential confusion that may arise, my use of "necessary" is a stronger property, specifically that a being is necessary if it is necessarily true that that being exists.
