Haha. Well, since the God of the Christians is part of the meta-physical world, he is outside of the laws of physics. This makes the law of cause and effect non-applicable to him. SO, God doesn't need a creator. He says, "I am who I am." God just IS. He doesnt have a creator. He doesnt need one. He is eternal.
You may call this a non-scientific approach, but since science is the study of the physical world, it cannot reach the level of God who is in the meta-physical world. You have to realize that this is actually a reasonable approach, unlike saying that the universe came into being out of nothing.
I'm going to indulge you once and only once. Why Yahweh, why not Myweh? Like someone else already stated, your exact argument has been posted here, almost word for word, a thousand times before. I'm sure I have a cut and paste response somewhere, which is ironic given that yours was clearly a cut and paste post, but I can't seem to find it right now. However, I'll give you the short answer. Why not Myweh? You seem to have made a leap, like so many do, from not understanding the origins of the universe to one specific Goddidit. I, having long held deistic beliefs which I've not completely shaken off, am guilty of the same crime sometimes. However, the simple truth of the matter is that not a one of us has demonstrated knowledge or proof of the origins of everything. If anyone had, one of two things would happen 1) We'd all believe in the correct God(s)/creator(s), or, 2) No one would believe in God(s)/creator(s), and would accept the correct natural explanation for the origins of everything.
