This is the question of the first cause. Something cannot be created out of nothing. Not controversial. But then to say God created the universe is a big step. But it really doesn't solve the problem of creating something out of nothing, it just pushes one step back. Who created God? God created himself? What did he use?

Bottom line: It's a matter of faith. You can believe that God created the universe(s?) or you can have faith that the big bang happened by chance.

It's a crap shoot. Einstein was wrong, God does play dice.

Something always had to be there. It is either matter/energy or God. And since it is pretty clear that the Universe had a beginning, and that no known law of nature, process, or sequence of events can explain information originating by itself in matter, then isn’t it fair to say that information as the product of an eternal intelligence is a distinct possiblity given the available evidence?
