Nevertheless, the really significant question – which we try to push away, but Science pulls us nearer to it every day -- is the one asked by A.A. Milne's little girl(?): if God made everything, who made God?* If Cosmologists stick to their theory that the Universe began with a singularity (say) 15,000 million years ago – an imaginable time in the past – we must be prepared to to deal with (if not answer) the question: of what kind is the cause of the Universe? The logical answer is that the Cause of the Universe, being outside the Universe and being therefore outside Time (being the cause of both), need have no beginning or end: 'Beginning' and 'End' are concepts invented for the Universe. The problem about this is that thinking about it too deeply makes me feel physically sick.

Said to her Nan:

"Please will you tell me how God began?

Somebody must have made Him. So

Who could it be, 'cos I want to know?"']
