I was reading arguments for and against the existence of God and got to the Unmoved Mover argument. Since the universe is about cause and effect everything has a cause and an effect. This goes to almost an infinite regress as to what created the universe in the first place. Nothing can cause nothing. There must have been something that has always existed whether it is God or energy or whatever. It couldn't have just come out of nothing. It is known in the material universe that particles can indeed come out of nothing but that cause of nothing is still something. That First Cause must have always existed as it couldn't have caused itself to exist as that requires existence of it in the first place. So the First Cause was not the result of any other cause and had always existed. The universe came into being by that First Cause and the universe will also have an ending. The First Cause must be incorporeal and has always existed.

Since everything that is created is actually rearrangement of the Universe by us then maybe the incorporeal exists as part of the First Cause, part of God and God rearranged itself to create the Universe. This gets along well with my pantheistical beliefs in God.
