The thing is, there are very compelling sets of reasoning to believe on an eternal and creating existence that serves as a cosmological hypothesis to explain the universe. If our logic is absolute, then there's actually not really any other concievable definition of what created us. Personification of that structure, is a whole different plot and set of arguments that are obviously open to human subjectivity.
emphasis mine

Really? Let's hear those "compelling sets of reasoning," by which I think you might mean logical proofs, but who knows?

And what would make a "eternal and creating existence" (whatever that might be) relevant? Would presuming its eternal existence add to our understanding of how the universe works? Would this hypothesis have any predictive application? Or is it just another label to put on what we don't know?
There's several different arguments for the existence of a god, i myself have created a topic in religion section about some of my own beliefs few weeks ago, so i'm not exactly going to takeover this thread to talk about those beliefs.

But in sum, and allow me the analogy, God is like an unicorn: it could exist, it's viable, it'd be very reasonable to exist. We might refute that there are unicorns on Earth in the present, but we trully can't refute the existence of a unicorn because it's an entirelly believable possibility, we have several animals with horns, i see no big reason to refute the possibility that there might be unicorns horse somewhere, even on a parallel dimension.
The same as god, it's entirelly believable that there is eternity and something trully uncreated existing, i see no reason to believe otherwise in fact. That that thing might be a god or just the "universe" in it, it's open to interpretation, but there's trully no reason to object the possibility.
