So what you're saying is that god is exempt from cause and effect because he exists outside of reality? That makes sense. After all, if he's not real you can give him any attributes you want!
So, if we have to exclude something from cause and effect, why exclude a being and claim that he created reality rather than simply use a more direct approach and exclude reality itself?
The notion of God existing outside of reality is nonsensical. I never made that claim.....I never would make that claim.
Where is he if God exists inside reality ?
If god exists inside reality what is the cause of god ?
If God have a cause he his no god because god must be over everything and created everything ?
He can't create himself.
Then who created god ?
If God is the answer to your question, it means that you have asked the wrong question.
A good question always ask how never why.
