If everything needs a creator, what created God? Just speculating that there must be a cause for the universe is not an argument for the existence of a god.
Hey Brian, I hope you are doing great, answering your question, if we follow the causality principle until the point where the universe must have had a cause, that cause doesn’t need to be ruled by our universal rules because it’s outside this universe. God doesn’t need to follow our universal laws because He is beyond all of them. God is cause in essence.
@@sebastianorellanaviolin If you examine what you just wrote, you should realize that you are simply making an assumption there is a god and designing a rationale for your conclusion. What does "God is cause in essence" actually mean, if anything? Universal rules apply to everything in the universe. Giving an imagined deity an imagined exemption is not only too convenient but, also, fatuous reasoning. If a deity is outside the universe, what good is it to anyone even if it did exist? If it is outside the universe, it has no sense of the forces of the universe we live in. Deities have plagued civilizations since the beginning of them. They are nothing but imaginary beings who have no existence outside the imaginations of mortals fearful of the unknown and the unexplained.
