Can anyone provide an argument for a necessary being?

RE: Can anyone provide an argument for a necessary being?
Fifth Element-"Let's focus on this for a second ...
Your statement is true within (inside of) natural world, World (or Universe, be that one only or Multiverse) can just exist, forever and ever, easily, without contradicting your statement Cool Shades"

Dear FE,
I am interested in keeping the argument fixed in the natural world as that is the only one that we can access with our senses and test our hypotheses against. But even so, I don't understand the reasoning behind your posit. My statement is that everything has a beginning and and end. Yours is that it is possible for a world/universe to go on existing without end. How can you say there is no contradiction between these two statements?
