I can't argue with the essence of what you say, which is that the existence of "God" is impossible to prove. I agree with that. And because I'm only a flesh & blood creature with limited senses, I must use logic to deduce that which I cannot prove through observation. So, logically, I ascribe the Beginning of Everything to a "God." I have no other answer right now, nor am I convinced of a better answer, but I am eager to here one.
