There's no scientific answer to the question.

There's no 'definite' answer to the question, but there are certaintily scientific hypothesis that hold more weight than others. I just started reading A Universe from Nothing by Dr Krauss (thanks, ThePinisir!), but for right now I'll quote Wyrd of Gawd

The problem is that it's almost impossible to to imagine what true "Nothing" is and what its properties are. That's because we live in a sea of "Something". However, it should be obvious that "Nothing" really exists and that it is the source of Everything. We should know that because the visible building block of the Universe is hydrogen, which evolves from "Nothing". Once "Nothing" creates hydrogen all things become possible. The hydrogen clumps together into giant balls and then ignites in a nuclear reaction to form stars, which create the heavy elements and real material.

We may not have the definite answer, but to assume "God did it!" is the most dishonest answer there is for this question. The truth is these 3 words, that most Christians hate "We Don't Know" and that's fine.

I don't hate those three words at all. Hypotheses are just that. You said in your introduction that science explains our origins. Does it?

Wouldn't the same logic that tells us the universe began and cannot be infinite also tell us that an infinite creator (or uncreated creator) is not possible?
You can't say the universe must have a start point or cause, and then turn around and say there could be some sort of creator that exists and has always existed outside of space and time. If an uncreated creator were possible, wouldn't an uncreated infinite universe be just as possible?

Yes. But it would have a supernatural explanation, not a natural one.
