Nor can the universe always have existed because you would have happened already, having had an eternity to do so. Therefore, nature needs a cause outside of itself, outside of time and space. And this is whom we call the uncreated Creator or God.
You see, that doesn't sway me in the least. If I write a book saying that there's a little green man in my closet who created everything, and then I go on to talk about how something can't come from nothing and so, obviously, it must have been my little green man, and that without my little green man, the universe would have always existed and therefore you would have already existed, that doesn't make my argument any more valid or true.

I'm not sure how they can testify that the disciples believed this, seeing as they're not around to ask. Even if they did believe, that's not proof, that's 12 uneducated guys from 20 centuries ago agreeing on something.

Just because we don't and may never know what created the universe doesn't mean we should throw our hands up and say "Well I guess it must've been God."
