Oops. Your very first premise has not been shown to be a tautology.

Sorry.

No uncaused thing except the uncaused thing which is very special and doesn't adhere to the whole point of the argument.

Hello friend, and welcome! Recently re-converted believer here, and I've got some proof of my own.
Nothing as math-y and complex as the exciting news that you've posted...but 100% solid, nonetheless.

Compelling! Convincing! Yes! 

God is great.
God is good.
Da Book.
Universe is crazy big, yo!
Heart stuff
Babies (Awwww)
Simple thangs can't make big 'ole complicated thangs.
Feelings
I like it, I want it.

Enough with the bullshit, heathens...God is real, and He's on the move!

What's the reward for proving god is not real?
It can't be as good as mine. $100000000000000000000000.
Come on people, it's up for grabs.

That remound me of the prayer we used to say as little kids before meals:

"God is great, God is good.
Let us thank him for all our food.
By his hand, we all are fed.
Thank you, Lord, for this daily bread."

Aaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmeeeeeeeeeennnnnnn.

Literally the same little ditty before breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It was one of the first things that made my brain uncomfortable.

I stopped at "there are no uncaused things" -- OP clearly hasn't heard of quantum fluctuations.

I disagree with first statement. I even claim that it is not merely wrong, but meaningless as applied. Unless you elaborate a bit more on what you mean by cause and causation as it applies to the universe, I don't feel inclined to read on.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
