Causality is not a law and an argument in favor of the existence of God

This essay critically examines the principle of causality as an argument for the existence of God.

The discussion explores concepts such as the relationship between causality and physical laws, the role of elementary particles without cause, and why invoking God as the ultimate cause does not resolve the problem of the universe’s origin.

The text critically analyzes agnosticism and its relation to skepticism, as well as the possibility of proving God’s nonexistence. It questions the validity of religious claims lacking empirical evidence and discusses the logical coherence of certain divine attributes, such as omnipotence.

While my perspective on this argument has evolved and is explored in depth in my book This Is It, here I offer a critical reflection on how motion and the structures of reality can be explained without invoking a transcendent being, rethinking the relationship between causality, metaphysics, and ethics.
