You assume that brains evolved towards understanding the universe as a result, rather than it being the side effect of high cognition it almost certainly is.

And your solution to the problem is to invent a god and assert, with absolutely no justification at all, that he is an uncaused cause.
Any justification for God being an uncaused cause applies even better to the universe.
