So you admit that it's possible for an entity to be eternal?

| This just doesn't make sense to me. I mean everything has a creator. How could he just be? |

God is "first cause", the one uncaused reality. Philosophically it can be said that his parents are primacy, perfection, changelessness, eternity, universality, absoluteness, and infinity.
I have personality though it's impossible for me to fully reveal my personality in words on this forum. You could really only truly know me by experiencing my presence.
I did not create my personality, nor did my parents create their personality. We are at the mercy of an intelligent life force which transcends our creative ability to produce personality. It is only by instinct that we participate in the creation of new life.
"To assume that the universe can be known, that it is intelligible, is to assume that the universe is mind made and personality managed. Man's mind can only perceive the mind phenomena of other minds, be they human or superhuman. If man's personality can experience the universe, there is a divine mind and an actual personality somewhere concealed in that universe." Urantia Book 1955
