The notion of having a cause for the universe that is outside of the universe is nonsensical. Causality is dependent on the existence of time and space, which don’t exist outside of the universe. So the best way to describe this hypothetical first cause would be ‘non-existent’.
That's it. A short and sweet argument against the existence of gods, or at least the idea of a transcendent creator god that is a first cause outside the universe.
