God did not have a beginning, God is eternal, that is why he is God.
and there we have it. For some reason god gets an exemption from the teleological argument, but everything else just has to have a creator. Not the creator himself and all of his complexity - oh no he just magically is. Question where subatomic particles come from, and argue that they just cannot come to be, and play the infinite regression game there, but not for this supposed creator - he can just simply be and can somehow have existed and or came from nothing himself.
It is a lame cop out in my opinion and the argument is self defeating when applied consistently and honestly.
