Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that the syllogism could be re-stated as follows:
1) It is reasonable to posit that everything that has a beginning has a cause, but there is no hard evidence of this;
2) The universe may have had beginning, but this is only one of several possibilities and depends on the definition of the word "beginning";
ergo
It is within the realm of possibility that the universe has a cause.
Is this accurate?
