One of the coolest questions in philosophy, in my opinion. Not that there are answers, but that it's a challenge to think about them and work through the different possibilities and what they might mean.
A parallel question, and safer from the facile answers of faith, omnipotence and atheism, is how/when/where did the universe come into being? Has it always existed? Was there anything before it began?
Cosmology tries to get as close as it can to that point. Right now they're talking about it all starting from a 'singularity.' Could that be just a different way of defining God?
Btw, Gnostic Christianity believed that what we think of as God was created by another more powerful entity. But where would that being come from? How could the originial being, God or anything else, make itself? We're said to be made in God's image -- what does that mean?
Great question, thanks for asking it.

As someone mentioned earlier, you're really getting into a chicken and the egg question here. If we're using human "logic" nothing just wills itself into existence. So under that process God must have parents. After all, the Greek Gods were offspring. But modern christianity doesn't want you to think anything along these lines, and I admit, there are greater quandries. But this is a great exercise to expand your thought processes. No, your faith isn't slipping in God...you just want to know more...and that's always a good thing!

Well,I geuss the answer would be totally dependent on your belief system.It would depend on which god your reffering to. there are lots of religions and in each one has a god,some many gods. It would also depend on whether your faith level an atheist mght beleive that there is no god at all,well a humnist might beleive that god was a concept created by man to explain the world around him he didn't understand. Supposing that you were a christian and a faithful to the bible on gods existence . then "I am the alpha and omega" meaning he is the beginning and the end.

God is God, not being created, not being born, nor giving birth, nothing shall be incorporate or comparable to God, God does not require assistants, we are nothing compared to God and we are not to question how God exists, as an analogy, when we became a worker to a company, we shall do our duties, not questioning what the owner of the company is doing, or how he do it. we just do out part and get paid. if we do not agree with the directive, get out of the company. So does with God, if you did not agree, go to another world where it doesn't involve God and His creations.

You are living in a splice of a hologram that is very much like a cadeucis(like the one mercury holds,and that is on the Harpocrates medical seal) in shape...this shape includes both the expanding and contracting universe and all of "apparent" serial time...the shape allows for individualism and the appearance of soul and ego...I tried suggesting this to Eve when I was the Serpent on the Tree...but she seemed utterly unable to retain it...The Lilith that first rejected Adam understands it much better...this was the last time I tried to help those made of dust...
Despite the Bible saying nothing about me being a goat...I am resigned to this scapegoat role I'm cast in...but truly you,and "even I" are of the Godhead...I abhor those rebelling against their overbearing dualist parents,who kill any creature in my name...for I am all of nature...and I am the tail,that the head tries to deny...I am procreation,greed and preservance that no species can survive without(verily,I am the gift of life)...and I am your ego's judge,when you are assured you have risen above me,who sends you back to this place over and over again(for head shall enter no permanent paradise without redeeming the instincts)...for I am verily you...My kingdom is ultimate compassion-for I take all the misdeveloped and fallen...and I reprocess them back to stone when necessary...when they've lost their individual soul,due to misunderstandings and obsessions regarding me...who made god?...you made him...you are him...I am him...and we are not just masculine...we are all God...

Chicken or the egg. Great fun to try an answer but, in the end, something that can never be resolved; never resolved, that is, unless you are an atheist. Then God was made by Man.

The answer is beyond our understanding. The humanity still cannot understand how the universe can be infinite so they won't understand the "creation" of the god at all.

No one made God. God always was and always will be.
