Atheists say that there is no such thing as a God !
But can they answer these doubts or questions ? For everything there is a starting point ! And therefore this existence had a starting point ! But what was before that point ? If you say nothing, Can something be created from nothing ?
If you say yes, you are out of your minds !
What was the force that brought up existence from nothing ?From where did that force come ? Whether you believe in the Big Bang or any other theory, what brought that force to existence ?
For any cause there should be other another causes, but these causes should end at a point, infinite number of causes is not valid and nothing in existence has infinite causes, it is like adding infinite number of zeros together and yet it totals zero ! And zero is not a valid answer because zero = nothing, and nothing has infinite number of causes ! But when adding one (the end point stopping infinite causes)we get answer!
So are there valid answers to my doubts

The argument is stated wrong... The argument should read..."Everything that has a beginning has a cause"
Since God is eternal and doesn't have a beginning, He doesn't need a cause...

Please. Nothing in the known universe has a starting point or ending point in reality all the way down to subatomic structure or even sound waves and light. Something has to be the cause of everything else, even down to the atomic/subatomic level, so where is the actual starting point of anything? Can you put your finger exactly on the moment the object that you define as "you" ceases to exist? How about the "finite moment you began? If you choose to say that you became you at the moment you were joined as a sperm and egg cell then you should still look like a sperm and egg cell. If you sit and think about it real hard, you cannot really find a "you", all you can find is a conglomerate or "heap" of PARTS that you define as you, giving it that label, WHICH changes depends on who is perceiving "you".
You're stuck in your logic because you're only playing with a finite set of definitions, connotations and concepts as you're choosing to define them, and stuck bouncing like a ball between paddles between nihilism and absolute materialism. You need to open up your mind and start looking for things as they really are. Only then will your answers come and it's apparent that you have a LOT more learning to do. Perhaps you might enjoy perusing what science, such as physics, quantum physics, and so forth are making in discoveries and you'll expand your thinking.

Any question about causality assumes a linear progression of events, a sequence in time (A causes or comes before B, etc.)So you are asking a time bound question about something that is not within time and space, but the source of time and space. This is how the idea of a God avoids the infinite regress (the other questions above about what made God); he/she/it needs no cause, not being within a realm (time and space) where causality has a meaning. But since we do not need to assume that such a source of the universe has a personality (other explanations are logically possible), theism is unnecessary to explain anything.

YEs, there is valid answers to your doubts. Allow me to explain:
You said "For everything there is a starting point !" So, then please tell me the starting point of this God of yours... Because "If you say nothing, Can something be created from nothing ? If you say yes, you are out of your minds !"
See, youre out of your mind if you think that your God simply always existed, seeing as everything needs a starting point, according to you....

Where'd your god come from?
The same questions shoot that belief down every bit as thoroughly.
You should have thought before posting. You assumed that we were some kind of idiots - we're not. We're WAY WAY ahead of you on this.

There is no valid point in knowing the origin of life, because as you have been a witness to man is a dumb animal that can think.
The only thing man has going for him is commence and if that were taken away he would be on all fours eating grass and freezing his butt off.

Your question is right on the money.
If nothing can come from nothing then God could not just be - he would have to have been created by something. Therefore, he must not be god.
Something had to have caused god. He could not just be fully formed, fully educated, fully evolved.
