The notion that for the univese to exist, it had to come from somewhere relies on the principle that for something to come into being, it has to have come from something else. This would imply that whatever the universe came from came from something else and so on ad infinitum. If God can come from nowhere and be infinite and wonderful, then why can't the universe?
I think that asking how the universe came to being is missing the point a little. The question we should really be asking is 'So, what's for dinner?'
