Well I don't know how to help you understand further. Horse to water kind of thing. Perhaps you could justify to yourself your continued discomfort with the premise by thinking of an uncaused thing? Good
No. You are presenting a proof, you need to establish that the terms you use are well-defined and apply to the situation at hand. Shifting the burden of proof to me to falsify your premise based on your ill defined terms, is silly - I don't even buy yet that you have a consistent notion of causation that applies to the universe as a whole. You don't seem to be able to elaborate on your definitions and instead hide behind a bit of smugness. That's not very convincing. Or have you not thought about it any deeper?
