The absolute absurdity of God

[Neo-Scholastic]

1. An event is a change in a real object
2. From any point in the past, there is a finite amount of events to the present and can be counted down en...e3...e2...e1...e0(now).
3. If there are an infinite amount of events in the past, we could never count down from infinity to e3...e2...e1...e0 because there would always be an infinite amount of events that would still have happened on the leading edge of the series.
4. With an infinite series of past events we could never arrive to the present. 
5. Therefore an actual infinite series of past events is impossible.

The classical arguments of Necessary Being and Prime Mover work regardless of whether the universe had a temporal starting point or receeds into an infinite past.

“The members in an essentially order sequence exist because of ontologically dependency. This stands in contrast to a temporal and accidental series. Gavin Kerr illustrates the ontological relationship as (v-->(w-->(x-->y)))  and a temporal series as (v-->w)-->(w-->x)-->(x-->y).*  Remove the unchanged changer/first cause/necessary being and all dependent members of the essentially ordered series disappear. Thus every essentially ordered series is sustained by a first member…footnote: Aquinas's Way to God, The Proof in De Ente et Essentia by  Gavin Kerr.” – taken from archived debate
