I only asked you about the first premise.... there was no mention of universe in that premise?  And I'm not asking for your evaluation of the entire argument.

edit:  Do you agree with the first premise?

Define "cause" properly. Are we talking "material" or "efficient" or "formal" or "final" or some non-Aristotelian type of cause or a combination of types of causes?
