I'm not trying to frame God in a temporal terms. Merely, why does God exist as opposed to nothing existing?
Also, is it stranger to think of natural reality existing inexplicably by itself or God existing inexplicably by himself?
That is all.
Haven't we be through this before? God says that no one can understand why God eternally exists. So good luck on getting a real answer.
Who said God existed by Himself, you'll not find that in scripture, even if He did He is all encompassing and would never be alone. So to answer your question, I could never believe in a existence that God was not a part of.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
