If God has always been there I can only assume that he didn't think much of Dinosaurs..................
I rest my case.

According to Buddhism, there is beginningless time.
There is no beginning, all is interdependant on something else. So in a way you could be correct. I would suggest that it is our notion of what God is that has a beginning, and that arose from some other notion.
It's like if you see something you never seen before and ask someone what it is. When they tell you and you have a concept of it, it doesn't mean the thing itself has just come into existence. It was already there. Your understanding and labelling of it came into existance when somebody explained what they percieve the object to be. Then on a common grounding you can refer to this object to be something which you both agree it to be.

Yes God has always been there. He is God. God is the beginning of all things. He is the First Uncaused Cause of all things. He created us out of nothing. He created the universe out of nothing. God is the alpha and the omega. He is the beginning and the end of all things.

'They' being who, Christians, Muslims, Jews?
God has always been, and will never fail to cease. I mean, this all must have started somehow, God is the answer. And many people know this, 'they' (being people in denial, atheists, people with massive fear) just choose not to acknowledge God is there and obviously do not want the magnificant gift of eternal life...

What is sad here is that so-called believers think that God is the son of Mary and Joseph.Read your Bibles..that was Jesus..Remember Him..born in a manger???
You expect the ignorant rantings from the atheists..they know no better...but Christians??

No, there didn't have to be a beginning. It is only because we as earth-bound beings are constrained by time, why we believe in time. We born and we die, so we cannot conceptualize anything outside of this. Probably not a good analogy, but I'll try. We are born with two hands, so if we put our hands in the fire they hurt. But what about someone who wasn't born with hands, they wouldn't have any hands to put in the fire so it couldn't hurt. The concept of time is a human condition, which does not necessarily apply outside of ourselves.

If matter can't have always existed (before a Big Bang, for example), then neither could God. Christians can't have it both ways.
Evolution doesn't address the origin of the universe one way or the other. It is easy to spot those who are ignorant about it, since they usually associate the Big Bang and Evolution, which are totally SEPARATE scientific theories.

God created time. God was there before the beginning.
Show me the beginning and the end of a RING (O).

It's difficult for us to comprehend, but God has always been. He has no beginning and no end.
