Any explanation of the origin of the universe will not be rational, you're just going to have to accept that a supernatural event took place at some point. I find it curious however that you state how you don't know how the universe was created, but somehow are quite certain that it wasn't God.
How can you begin to dispute something if you have no basis on which to form your argument? If you have no peticular belief or theory on the creation of the universe then you'd have to take a neutral stance because you "don't know".
You are not being logical. "I don't know" is the only rational answer.
We have good evidence that something like the Big Bang occurred, we have no evidence of multiverses or gods.
I don't believe any of the explanations, but I only seriously consider the ones for which there is evidence.
I also summarily dismiss the ones that are non-logical or contradictory such as a steady-state universe or one that involves a creator that is eternal.
We have a hard time with ''I don't know,'' or the term ''uncaused.''
The other part to this is, how plausible can the idea of a god actually existing be, if there are a myriad of religions to ''choose'' from, that all seem to contradict one another? That's why I didn't leave Christianity and jump to another religion. It wasn't only Christianity that I had an issue with, it was all religion.
I never understood why someone leaves Islam and then moves to Christianity, or vice versa. It's like 'shopping for a god.'
