"Sometimes these things happen" ???

Ergh. If I was talking to a god who gave that as the excuse for existence, I'd be very tempted to hit her/him/it. If said god was in corporeal form.

But that's because God's are supposed to have answers. They're the primal movers from whom all meaning flows.

When you acknowledge the universe is without intrinsic meaning and that all searches for a prime cause are essentially infinite in regression then you have to eventually accept that, while everything beneath that level may well be entirely causal, the initial event must be acausal. And thus 'one of those things that just happens.'
