GOD
Does God Exist What is God? Who is God? Why do some people conclude that a God exists? Saint Thomas Aquinas goes from the fact that there must be a first efficient cause to the conclusion that God is that cause. Why must Aquinas make the extraordinary jump from there being a cause, to assuming that this cause must be God? Would it not be just as plausible to make matter the first cause? Matter
the unsolved mysteries and theories of the universe. However, matter is a better fit. Overall, I have shown that the argument given by Aquinas only assumes God, it does not prove it. Matter "is", just as God "is". Furthermore, I have shown that the explanation of God is not needed and therefore there is no place for God in the discussion of the first cause. Therefore, God does not exist as a first efficient cause.
