Who created God, who is more complex than we?

So if some being created God, who created that being? And who created the one that created God? And who created the one who created, the one who created, the one who created,....? And so on ad infinitum, ad nauseum.

What's your point? And just how far back do you want to take that agrument?

And so on ad infinitum.

Aristotle rejected the infinite regress. I wonder why.

Sirlinksalot puts it well: If God is understood as Eternal, everlasting, Omniscient, Omnipotent, Perfect, one who always was and always will be, then this is like asking the question, Who created the one who is Eternal, Everlasting, Omniscient, Omnipotent, Perfect, one who always was and always will be.

The Greeks had it right, something must be eternal. This explains the logical absurdity of atheism. There are only nominal atheists.
