Evidence? I hear assertions need them.
1. Evidence of things existing without cause.
2. Evidence of infinite causal regression.
3. Evidence of eternal nature of the Universe. (I believe this is contra to thermodynamics and current evidence supporting the big bang.)
4. To prevent special pleading evidence 1, 2 or 3.
5. Evidence awaited.
By the way I am willing to accept synthetic apriori and aposteriori evidence. So you may evidence by logic or experience.
5. Acknowledgement of ignorance and uncertainty awaited.
