If we were symbolically in a line with the 100 greatest philosophers, theologians, scientists moving forward to understand how God doesn't require a beginning, we would soon encounter a hedge that would stop everyone. Looking down the line, no one had advanced even a smidgen further than anyone else. What we do know is there isn't a God of the 2'nd power, 3'rd, in perpetuity.
Your first sentence is an existential fallacy: You haven't yet demonstrated that your god even exists, so telling us that it's uncaused and uncreated is rather premature. How would you even know that, mortal? How would you collect the evidence required to prove such a thing? For starters, you'd need a time machine to go back to at least the start of this universe, and demonstrate that your god was already there.
(And what a daft use of the phrase "What we do know"! What's wrong with simply saying "What we believe"? I have no good reason to doubt that you have a belief, and plenty of reasons to doubt that you possess actual knowledge that corroborates your claim.)
