Antipas you're very eloquent and it's obvious you've thought on this deeply.

Only problem I can see is this, if I agree that matter, motion, time, and space (sounds like the lead-in to a TV show) needs to come from "somewhere" and is expanding into "something" doesn't necessarily mean that somewhere and something is god. That conclusion requires faith, not logic.

Indeed, everything we know could exist within the science kit of a nerdy adolescent, whose universe exists within the science kit of a nerdy adolescent, etc, etc, etc. All I know for sure is a turtle is heavily involved somewhere . . . :wtf:
