Please look it up, I have an explanation about it on my website under logical fallacies and you can find it on Wikipedia. It's a broken way of thinking, to make and hold onto unfalsifiable claims. You need to realize this is an error if you are at all interested in truth. I'm not having a go at you, it's probably the most common fallacy committed by theists. Most of them don't give a shit that their arguments are broken, as they have routinely demonstrated, but I feel you are more concerned with them than truth. If I'm correct, please check it out or else it's just not possible to have meaningful discussion. Otherwise, it's like playing chess with someone who keeps trying to move their rook diagonally.

And here's a question: we have a sample size of one universe. What would a "non created" universe look like, and how do you know this?
Actually, I do understand what you're saying, but I'm not trying to scientifically prove God. I am ignorant of any scientific evidence that would prove the existence of God, but I'm not making an argument from that ignorance. I am saying that I believe in God and then I'm stating things that help support that belief. I'm not really trying to prove my position is true, but rather I am bringing up things that re-enforce or support my belief. If someone asks me why I believe in God, I would say that God put that belief in me and that these things support that belief in myself.
