Causes
Nothing can be the cause of it's self, as it would have to 'exist' before bieng caused. This of course is impossible, so like with motion there must have been a first "un caused" cause, that started a chain of causes. This is God.

Contingency
There must have been a time when nothing existed, the cause of the universe would have to be outside of the universe and must have always existed. There muse have been something to cause the universe to exist, this is God.

Of course, this can also be applied to the big bang. So you could say

God = the Big Bang.
Acid , I am one firm believer in the sciences of space.

Have you not herd of the bigbang theory?
