No. You're making an assumption that there are other universes that God started. That is completely your imagination at work.
God is completely imaginary too. He was invented by ancient people to explain the unknown, then used by society to control people. Now we know much more, thanks to the development of science.

You likely think when people say God they envision an old man with a white beard sitting on a cloud directing life on planet earth like a supernatural stage manager. You should probably start this analysis with a book title 'How to Know God" by Deepak Chopra. Very easy read, outlines a starting point for this conversation.
I don't think of God as you describe and never have, even when I believed in him. I hope that knowing this, you will now address my question.
Your question is in obvious bad faith. I will not.

Give me a better explanation than God and I will drop God.
Exactly how people have been using the gods for millennia:
To explain what is unknown at that moment.
No answer.
Your high school science class is not helping.
I wasn't trying to answer.
If you are uncomfortable with the unknown, then keep your blanket of religion wrapped tightly around yourself. It's a great coping mechanism.
Since you have no answer for consciousness with science I am back with GOD.
Consciousness? Guess you’ve never heard of MRI machines?
Religion seems like a great option for you though. Stick with that. 👍

Interested in hearing from both believers and non-believers.
It's not "desirable" to believe in gods.
It's 2025, FFS.
Seriously. FFS. It’s embarrassing. When will we, as a society and country, stop believing and leaning on these bronze age fairy tales? Will we ever progress? It doesn’t seem likely. Unbelievable.
