The first cause argument involves neither of those things. It says that all contingent things rely for their existence on something non-contingent.
No one on this thread has said why the argument is wrong.
Big fucking whoop. Unless or until someone defines/identifies the first cause and that definition does not depend upon belief/faith alone, it's all just mental masturbation and basically useless.
