God always existed.

Logical fallacy of special pleading.

Our weak little minds can’t wrap around the concept of forever. We only understand time as having a finite beginning and end.

Science has already played with the idea that time is not absolute. Time going in one direction only as we experience actually creates a problem in physics. In a "something from nothing" universe a timeline is assumed ("from"), but a timeline did not necessarily exist.

We can’t fully comprehend infinity.

Already been done. Our mathemeticians even do math using infinity. The "infinite monkeys crating all the works of Shakespeare" exercise is meant to explain infinity.

Why do you say that the proposition that God always existed is the logical fallacy of special pleading?

Cordially,
