Well there is the God of the most high the creator of heaven, hell, and earth, The Alpha and the Omega... And then it is said in the Bible "indeed there are many Gods, but only one true God". God ol mighty...

So we are playing my God is better then yours? LOL... Sorry I dont understand the comment..

No GM I'm not saying anyones God is better than any other. I'm just having an opinion on this forum just like you... I don't even know who your God or Gods are or care. As I have said many times we are all equal and the same just humans on a journey of enlightenment...I'm one of the most none Church following people you will ever met in your life. Now spiritual you will also not met anyone stronger... So we have to be careful not to group people up and stereotype... It is very tricky trying to sum up me, I'm not your every day drone... All the best intent Mel

I don't think that any of us here would be classified as 'your everyday drone'.

Be it 'a' God or 'Gods' or Heavenly Father, or Great Spirit, whichever you choose to believe, or to call him/her.. has nothing to do with it. The spirit of the question/topic posed was who created them?

I'm pretty sure, not 100% mind you, that all of us has had this question on our minds at one point or another in life. I know I have.

Asking who created God is like asking to explain the concept of eternity-- It is.

God's father created God... the same way God created us. There is no beginning or end because you can't trace the genealogy back far enough and the posterity has no end. That and I don't think God would want to go through his whole lineage. That'd take an eternity in and of itself. Heh.

wait you mean Christ or Yahweh?
Yahweh does not have a birth nor a Father or Mother nor a begining. No where in the Hebrew text does it say Yahweh has a father.
Your concept is to human meaning conception and birth from something else. The Hebrew God was never explained like a greek God's to have Father mother or siblings. He was his own creation there for the begining. No one before him. His lineage according to scripture would be his creation of Man in general because he created man out of his own likeness.

There is a infinite number of Gods in different religions and stuff. What God?

You know I've come to a conclusion on the many different Gods idea. I do wish to stress to everyone that the following is *MY* personal opinion and does not reflect the views or opinions of anyone else in existence in the past, present or future.

How we see God, Gods or Goddesses is irrelevant they are all the same thing. Each person has to develop their idea of faith their own way, there is no single version of the Creator that is true, they all are true. If we feel the need to paint it in a feminine light that is our choice, it's not wrong nor is it right above any other version. If we feel that it's male and there is only one of him that again is right for us, but not the only truth.

We can even see it as a big bowl of spaghetti and while that's a silly view, it's no more incorrect or correct than any other view.

The Creator comes to us in a fashion we can accept and build our belief on. Religion was created by man for control and power, God is God is God no matter how you see him/her/it.

Now to answer the OP's question, how God was or was not created is a question we're not ready to have the answer to yet. If you look at us as a whole and in the big scheme of things, we're still in our infantile stage. We still pick stupid fights, are still very selfish, stubborn, defiant, etc. Until we reach "adulthood" that answer is beyond our understanding.

Think of it as this, if you gave a 2yr old a question from Algebra what are the odds that 2yr old will understand it and be able to solve it?? But you wait and when they are an adult ask them the same question and they are better equipped to answer it.

I understand what you are saying and I understand the concept of only being one God. Although I see Hebrew God Christian God Greek Gods Pagan Gods etc, Different by defintion and respect of the individual religion. Although I do agree with SouthPark I think the Mormon's might be the only ones who got it correct anyway LOL.

In fact FTL drives are the only practical thing..

The physics and math just don't support it. To do so implies mass greater than infinity and length less than zero. Not at all possible.

The problem here is that physics & math are man-made which are imperfect, science itself is imperfect. So you can never say it CAN'T be done, the proper answer would be it PROBABLY CAN'T be done. Physics and science believed man could never fly, yet here we are flying all over the world and into space, science believed the Earth was flat, again it was proven to be wrong. Science stated the universe revolved around the Earth, and yet again science was proven to be incorrect.

Now with our current understand of physics and propulsion I agree FTL (faster than light for those that don't know what that meant) is impossible. But that's not to say later on we can't solve our roadblock and actually reach speeds that are FTL. In fact I believe one method that is being considered is the use of black holes and/or worm holes. Of course the latter I don't think are a proven phenomenon but the prior (black holes) do exist, and currently it's believed they are a void but without conclusive data to prove or disprove that they are a viable method of moving about the universe at a relative speed that is faster than light, in a manner of speaking.

Besides they do it all the time on Star Trek, so obviously it can be done.

That last line was a joke and not meant to be taken seriously.
