Theists- do you believe without evidence?

[Cyberman]

If matter/engery could exist under its own power, it would be infinite.

Why would it?

For things to exist, Existence must be.

Ye-es... with you so far...

If the universe was its own source, it wouldn't be limited in it's existence. Instead, the universe is finite, and therefore has a source of existence. This is the reasoning for 2 and 3.

Unfortuntely, you can only reach this conclusion by first making the assertion at the top of this reply, thus defining the terms of the argument in such a way as to assume your conclusion. This is reasoning, certainly, but it's very bad reasoning. We're back to my watch-damaging gremlins again, which I defined into existence to be the cause of watches to break, solely to make the argument work. However, my argument was critical commentary on yours - what's your excuse?

But let's grant all your definitions, assumptions and assertions; let's take your points as they stand, at face value, even though they cannot do so without massive support which you haven't provided. The Universe exists, it could not have caused itself and so must have had a cause. How do you get from there to a god exists? Let alone "God"? Give me the B that plugs in neatly between your A and C.
