I know that this is all to confusing until one learns about God and really gets to know him. All I can answer to this is that the Bible says in [Revelation 1:8] "I am the Alpha and the Omega, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the almighty." [Revelation 21:6, and 22:12&13.][Genesis 1] We are only human and as humans we have finite minds that can't possibly understand the things of God completely, until we come face to face with him in the final days. Then and only then will we be able to understand all things. I used to have the same kind of questions, but since I have come to a growing relationship with our God, I don't question, I just accept. Why? Because God has been there for me so many times and has helped me to understand all I need at different points in my life. As my relationship with him grows, the more I understand and the stronger my faith grows. Thank God for that.
Good luck in your search, and I will pray that God will help you with this question, and others that you will have.
God bless 

I would have to tell him that God is not a creation, he is The Creator. There is no way that you can compair God with any tangable thing, let alone, anything you can even imagine. If there was no God, then there would be no creation. He is the one that made creation. How can you even comprehend creating something from nothing enough to ask a question like that? Ask them to tell you what creation is to them. Most likely they will destroy their own debate by their answer. Good luck, and may the holy spirit speak through you. 

I would have to say that God is not a creation. He is the creator. There is no possiblity of compairing God with something tangable. He made what creation is. Without God there would be no such thing as creation. If he want's to be all philisophical on you, tell him that. And ask him to define what creation is to him. He will probabily contradict himself.
