You're going to get the same cop out answer about how God is eternal and lives outside the bounds of logic and time, while the universe has to have a beginning.

There are some things that aren't a matter of opinion. If you deny reality, then people might rightly decide that you are irrational. Either God exists, or He doesn't, irrespective of your opinion.
That said, consider that the real problem is "the buck stops here". If we say the universe is eternal, that is the same problem. But we can see from evidence (the laws of thermodynamics) that the universe cannot have always existed, because if it had, the heat death would have been reached long ago. If you look at the design of the universe, you can appreciate the fact that a rational and creative mind designed it. It's just too well balanced. Change the values of some parameters just a tiny, tiny bit, and life on the earth would have been impossible. Who is behind this? The usual answer is "God". For God to be a viable answer, He has to have always existed. If He did not always exist, your question would make sense, because someone or something would have had to create Him. Some of us would explain that He created the structure of time, and has always existed in eternity, so not bound by time. The question of who created God is really a temporal question; it requires thinking within the framework of time.
Why do you think the Bible is a load of whatever? Feel free to note me with the answer.

Yes absolutely God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit is real, you would not be hear today if they were not. Your heart wouldn't be beating and there would be no air to breathe. It amazes me that you would say that about the Bible when they are still finding all kinds of writings in caves in the middle east as we speak, the dead seascrolls as their called remember, theres actually a museum in SD California. That is not magic or made up like that harry potter hocus pocus stuff. I would encourage you to get a Bible and start reading the word of God and find out for yourself whether there is a God or not. Don't take somebody's word for it. Seek and ye shall find, This is Isaiah 43:10, Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. What ever formed God we don't know but we may know someday if you are in the same place He is. But the Bible says that if you are not in Heaven then you will be in hell in total darkness and you will have total separation from God. In other words you will never know. I encourage you to read the first four books of the new testament then read Genesis. If you are really interested. Jesus gave you free will, what you do with it is up to you, May God Be found of YOU when you seek Him.

First of all, there is a God, He always was and always will be! There are three persons in one God
God the Father
God the Son
God the Holy Spirit
This is called the Holy Trinity
As for the Bible, it is a very complicated book, millions of people can read it and get a different meaning. That is why we can read the Bible and get answers to our problems. I don't believe one should be taught from the Bible, The Bible teacher can tell you something means this or that and you can read the same thing and get a whole different meaning.

For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God.
I believe you should rethink your opinion of the Bible. Read it. You may find the answers to the questions you have.

Yes, they are real. The Holy Spirit created God, but I'm not sure what created the Holy Spirit.

I believe in God, but I'm not Christian...I'm not sure about Jesus, though, and who created God? The beggining of the world. When the world began, God was made.

God and Jesus are as real as you want them to be. God appeared about 6000 years ago when some else thought he was as real as he wanted him to be. Jesus appeared about 4000 years later in exactly the same way.

Thought created god.
What looks after is the supreme law of the divine, which is energy follows thought. Karma is a result of that, which physically balances everything out.
