Obvious question for the supernaturalists - where did their particular deities come from? Always existed would be the most reasonable answer.
Before the 60s science still allowed naturalists to make a similar claim. Then the big bang blew it all up, how sad.

The “Big Bang” was the “beginning” - however, something had to bring it into existance, something that pre-existed this “beginning”. That something would have to be ever-existing without beginning or end.

Then a similar sort of evasion of causality should work for the rationalists. Perhaps "The laws of nature are just the way they are, because?"
