There is the great unknown, and we shall call it God
Anything that begins to exist has a cause for its existence.
​
I personally would grant that as being correct. To us, that cause is unknown and may be unknowable. You want to call that great unknown "God".
​
There is another term for not knowing - It's "ignorance". Therefore "ignorance" = "God". Or so seems your line of reasoning.

A new universe within an old universe?
What if, 13.5 billion years ago, a universe existed but it consisted of nothing but absolutely empty space? Then the new universe started up and became what we now know.
​
Then, ultimately, our universe expands and decays to become the newer huge volume of absolutely empty space.
​
Then, maybe, repeat it all again...
