What would be the nature of the above 'something'? in other words, is it a whole something? a lot of things together? something out of our imagination? etc.
All the religious beliefs we have been exposed to so far in our lives, is that the only argument for God's existence? can there be other explanations?
does the existence of God need to metaphysical if He exists?
What would make us believe in God?
What is God, as far as you have heard so far in your life and how does He communicate with us?
...I have more questions, but let's start with answering these first.
starting from nothing is a big step for me. M-theory says it may not have started from nothing. And there are a few other possibilities. Quantum soup is something, not nothing. Even Kraus's "zero" is positive + negatives = zero, that aint even nothing. Waves at 90 degrees cancel out to the null point, that aint nothing either to me.

Nothing freaks me out more than nothing.

one sentence can sum up all your questions:
We don't know enough to define god outside of what we do know. Period.
