There is nothing that says that cause for the universe MUST BE a spirit. You, my friend, are making that leap all by yourself...well, not really, lots of people do the same...
At this point, scientists (an others) are making lots of speculation about how the universe came to be as we see it now...but none of the evidence is absolutely conclusive; that is, alternative explanations cannot be ruled out completely.
As for whether this thread is for me...of course it is: you're the one who posted it in the General Religious Debates section, and posted a dualistic answer for your little survey when, as I and several others have repeatedly pointed out, there are other possibilities outside of your dualistic conception of the ways the question could be answered.
If you aren't happy with the fact that there are more understandings of the universe than are dreamt of in your philosophy, you should either not post such flawed questions, or pick a forum where all the readers agree with your dualism.
