Who or what created God?
40:12 - Who created God?
Common atheist fallacies: exposed !!
The universe had a beginning, and must, therefore, have been caused into being and created by something
If there ever was a time when nothing at all existed, then there would be absolutely nothing today.
It is an axiomatic truth that if nothing ever existed, then “nothing” would still be the ontological situation, for nothing simply remains nothing — forever! Nothing plus nothing equals nothing.
Since it is the case that something does now exist, one must logically conclude that something has existed always.
That “something” must be either physical or non-physical.
Since the physical universe came into existence at a finite time ago, the cause must be non-physical.
Another term for the “non-physical” would be “spirit.”
Therefore, that “something” must have existed eternally, and be and spiritual in nature. This being, we call God.
Nuts and bolts on how that works?
I have no idea. But God creating the universe, is possible, even if we don't know, how. Nothing doing something is however impossible.

In that case where did this “eternal spirit” come into being? What’s that? It has always existed and is exempt from your claim number one?
How extraordinarily convenient.
Roger the Eternal Duck is also exempted.
Quack on!
