The universe and natural processes do exist. But they didn't cause themselves to exist right? The evidence of a Creator is the fine-tuning of the universe for life. I just wrote a post detailing some of that.
I'm not sure that a self-caused universe is significantly less plausible than causality operating outside time. Both seem pretty wild ideas. A self-caused universe would be eternal.
