I want to keep this succinct, so I'll try.

Time doesn't "begin" or "end". Time is a field of the universe (which is composed of fields) and changes relative to other fields. "Before" these fields affected each other is a nonsensical description. The universe doesn't need to exist within an atemporal multiverse, it is described by a closed system.

Subjective experience is described by self-consistent physical theories that do not add anything (unobservable) to the universe. Souls and Gods do. Usually the problem is the conceptualization - it doesn't make sense because we are conceptualizing it in a contradictory manner.

So, no, God didn't "always exist".

Also, please stop introducing morality as an agreed-upon characteristic. It isn't by any reasonable means and I'm just going to start ignoring posts that include it.
