The universe may have been caused by a quantum vacuum fluctuation. The math works and it doesn't violate the laws of physics as we know them or contradict what we can observe of the universe. That doesn't mean it's true, there are multiple hypotheses for the origin of the universe that can meet the same criteria. The other scientific hypotheses for how the universe began (if it did in fact begin instead of existing eternally in some form or another) are also all natural causes.
I can see being grateful that there was a natural cause that resulted in the universe and allowed me to exist; but I don't see any utility in calling it God and worshiping it. That's the very reason it matters whether the origin of the universe is due to a what or a who.

I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
