    restated:

    God by definition is the uncreated creator of the universe, so the question "Who created God?" is illogical, just like "To whom is the bachelor married?".

    So a more sophisticated questioner might ask: "If the universe needs a cause, then why doesn't God need a cause? And if God doesn't need a cause, why should the universe need a cause?" It's simple:

    1. Everything WHICH HAS A BEGINNING has a cause.

    2. The universe has a beginning.

    3. Therefore the universe has a cause.

    4. God, however, does not have a beginning, so He does not have a cause.

    The universe cannot be self-caused nothing can create itself, because that would mean that it existed before it was brought into existence, a logical absurdity.
