Sorry, its a really stupid question.
Until we do die and, pray God, go to heaven, our understanding will be unclear. Until then just accept the fact God did create everything including you, deal with it.

I believe that there are absolute truths in the universe. I believe that man is far too limited to understand the full scope of most things and must come to a point where faith is involved even if he (or she) is an athiest.
I was once an athiest, but I am not now. I think it takes faith even to be an athiest, but as well one has to lie to himself, or deny the facts in front of him, to continue on in this belief system.
For instance, just considering the complexity of a strand of DNA, one has to acknowledge the presence of intelligence and oversight in its design.
I was agnostic longer than I was an athiest, which I think any honest athiest must conclude to actually be, for can you say you have all the information necessary to rule out the possibility of there being a creator?
Consequently, you must admit to only "not knowing" if you are honest, and therefore be an agnostic by definition. If you can be this honest, apart from prejudices, then that can be a launching pad onto more truth... if truth is indeed the goal of your quest.

God was not created. He is, was and always will be. We've just named him God but he is the energy that put everything into motion. You could call him an atheist because he knows there is no entity higher or any other God so in that sense he would be, but he is aware of himself and does not deny his own existence. This is probably a waste of words because somehow you will still believe all of creation just happened. On earth we have beginnings and endings so it is difficult to accept a concept that says God has no beginning or ending or a realm where the laws of Planet Earth don't rule.

If I am getting this right, you are saying that because God was not a creation He is an atheist? The logic of your original statement is flawed, therefore the rest of your hypothesis is also flawed.
God is not limited by time/space. He always was, is and is to come. He is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. Since God obviously believes in Himself, He is not an atheist - at least my understanding of the word - an atheist is one who does not believe in God.

How can you know God doesn't exist? Have you at least explored all of space to make sure He's not anywhere in the physical universe? I won't ask you to explore anything outside of it, since that's impossible for any person. But since you can't prove God doesn't exist, you're thinking irrationally by saying you know He doesn't exist. How do you know this?
You imply that God must have made Himself, this isn't true. God is uncreated. He has always existed, even before time. If you can't comprehend this, don't worry, I can't really either, our minds can't comprehend eternity.
I have answered your question with logic, I don't know if you'll accept it or not, but I have.

In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Allah is the light of the heavens and the earth. His light is as if there were a lustrous niche, wherein is a lamp. The lamp is inside a glass-globe. The globe is, as it were, a glittering star. The lamp is lit from the oil of a blessed tree -an olive - neither of the East nor of the West, whose oil well-nigh would shine forth even though fire touched it not. Light upon light! Allah guides to His light whomsoever He pleases. And Allah sets forth parables for men, and Allah knows all things full well.
Seest thou not that it is God Whose praises, all who are in the heavens and the earth celebrate, and so do the birds with their wings outspread? Each one knows his own mode of prayer and praise. And Allah knows well what they do.
And to God belongs the Kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and to Allah shall be the return.

God doesn't deny his own creation. There are also many things God hasn't revealed to us. These are called the mysteries of God.So when we meet him face to face I'll just have to ask him. There alot of things we accept in this world even if we don't know how they work. I couldn't tell you how airplanes work, but I know they do. Just like when you walk up to the facet in your house you by faith expect water to come out and for it to be in a usable state.We accept these things by Faith.

Did you ever look up the definition: Atheism?
It's a system of belief that there is no God, or denying the existance of God(that's the main definition). Wouldn't it be stupid of God to say "Hey, I don't exist"(he sounds like a drunk).
Look up the definitions more carefully.

I could answer you question in support of God but not with logic.
A " faith turd" is the only way I could back up God.

"Drop a faith turd and run"? Now how is a statement like that going to soften the hearts of church people so they can address the question calmly.
Honestly.
It's hard engough getting any kind of rational thought out of church people, it seems to me you could have worded your question more tactfully. I must admonish you.
