IMHO, trying to use conventional logic in regards to the origins of the universe isn't really wise, as quantum physics have proven that stuff happens in weird ways we're not used to experience in the macroscopic world of ours.
We really don't know much about the actual nature of time (at least as far as I know, feel free to shame me Alex) and about the deep nature of the cause-effect principles. Of course, we know how they work at our level, and we know they are there, but those questions are better left to physicists, not amateur philosophers.

"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."
