Then where did the universe come from, you seem to be implying you have an answer?
Where did God come from? What did God make the universe from?

How convenient!
The universe was created to last forever, until sin corrupted creation, the 2nd law took effect.
Source? If that happened 6,000 years ago, why does the 2nd law effect the 14 billion year history of the universe as we know it?

If there is no morally superior Being, then who do you suggest we be morally ac countable to. Jesus brings us to moral accountability, study the NT to find this out.
There is no moral accountability with a God. Confession only works to escape secular accountability. People can rape, murder, steal, rape children for years on end, then simply apologize and they're off the hook with clergy to protect them. What kind of "accountability" is that?!

You tell me, how does an eternal being have a cause or beginning if you prefer?

How does an eternally contracting-expanding universe have a cause or a beginning if you prefer?
Why should anything be eternal, and why does an all powerful, all knowing conscious being eternal make more sense than an eternally contracting-expanding universe?
What would such an entity have to be conscious OF without a universe? What would such a being KNOW if there was nothing TO know? Why would that being know morality if there were only ONE entity?
