OK, if we have two authorities that probably clinches it.

Since I made no such claim, that's a straw man fallacy, and given your penchant for making bare appeals to authority, by name dropping philosophers, as of course you did here again, a pretty ironic one. Since you offered nothing here either, beyond the name of a philosopher and the title of one of his arguments? Then challenged others to argue against it, which was when I pointed out that opposing arguments abound, and named two philosophers of renown, who had written opposing arguments. 
Quote:Do you happen to remember offhand what objective evidence Nietzsche uses to criticize causality?
Since I didn't claim, or even imply anywhere, that their philosophical arguments contained any objective evidence, or even mention objective evidence at all, that is of course another straw man fallacy. You asked for flaws in Aristotle's arguments, despite not actually offering one word as to why you find it compelling, here it is then:

Quote:Can you point out the flaws in Aristotle's argument to me?
It seems you can make bare appeals to authority, but others must delve into detail. FYI anyone can disbelieve Aristotle's argument, this does not invoke a burden of proof, it is a common error in reasoning that seems in vogue among religious apologetics, to try and reverse their burden of proof by pretending disbelief or the lack of belief, represents a contrary claim, Lane Craig uses poorly reasoned arguments of that ilk often in debate.
