>>An actual infinite regress of causes in the physical universe is impossible because the material universe is finite.<<

All the scientific evidences points to an infinite universe, not a finite universe.

That is nuts, do you know that? "uncreated self existent being"

That is pure psychobable and means nothing. Those are just words.

A scientist has to ask the logical questions of god:

1) What is an uncreated being?

2) Is this existent being infinite?

3) And how is it that there is an uncreated god.

Why not an uncreated infinite universe? Even more easy to believe because there is science pointing to infinity and something coming out of nothing, because the HUP says there can be no nothing.

I agree with your analysis except you'd have to explain 'self existent'... don't see how that term is necessary (well, and 'God' of course, but I'm OK with that)... you dropped 'personal' though, that's good.
