This statement sets up a false dichotomy, as if there were only two options: either the universe was created, or it somehow conjured itself into existence.
But reality isn’t that simplistic. Other possibilities exist:
1. The universe could be eternal, with no beginning and no need for a cause.
2. It could have emerged from a higher-order natural process, without requiring a conscious creator.
3. It might be part of a multiverse, where physical mechanisms continuously generate new universes.
The question of the universe’s origin is complex and demands a deep dive into the laws of nature—rather than a mere coin toss between two choices.
