   I'm not saying it can. I'm just wondering why the universe cannot be   
   eternal if God can?   
      
   If the universe is eternal, then it did not need to be created, because   
   it was always there - just like God. And, of course, if the universe   
   didn't need to be created, then there's no need for a God.   
      
   Your entire thesis seems to be based on the premise that God can have a   
   property - being eternal - that is denied to anything else for no   
   explained reason.
