Earlier you were saying an infinite chain of contingency is impossible, something to that effect. I don't know how you could possibly know that.

Sounds like a ripe question for a new thread then doesn't it? I'll be trying to think of the best way to propose it as a question! Thanks!

Until then, suppose we could know that an infinite chain of contingency is impossible. Would you agree or disagree that such case would mean that:

"some things exist without the condition that other things synchronously exist"?
