First, remember this argument is an inductive argument. The premises don't have to be proven--only more likely than not. In the case of Premise (1) it is extremely more likely that this is an objective feature of reality. Think about it, if there existed a reality that had no causal concept, could you really know anything about such a reality? There couldn't possibly be any consciousness that could endure in it.
Regardless, no one can put together a plausible argument against it--so it stands.
Steve, I posed a few more questions after the fact in post #631, if you would be so kind as to take a look.
Also, can you demonstrate that premise one is more likely true than not? “I just don’t see how it couldn’t be true” doesn’t really cut it.
Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”
