Even if I were to agree with the dubious supposition that something "had to have created the universe", I don't see how one could divine (so to speak) the nature of that something. It's no more likely to be the Judeo Christian god vs. some nebulous benevolent entity vs. sadistic aliens screwing with us vs. some barely cognizant being that created our universe when it squished some other smaller being. There are literally infinite possibilities of what "god" might be, such that whatever version of god any individual decides to believe in is almost without a doubt wrong.

I can't fault the comfort any individual might feel due to the particular version they've settled on. But there is simply nothing that I know of within human perception that requires the existence of supernatural forces to exist. And certainly nothing that points to the nature of any hypothetical supernatural force.
