Atheism posits a primordial energy whose origin it can never explain.

From Wikidebates
This argument is used in the debate : Does God exist?.
This argument is a justification of : God is the first cause of the universe.
Keywords: none .

Summary 

The universe is produced by a primordial energy that atheism cannot explain. It recognizes its presence. Cosmological theories do the same, and they too fail to account for the presence of this quasi-infinite energy at the origin of the universe. So, logically, we're forced into two positions: either we assume that this energy is uncaused, that primordial nothingness produced it. This is absurd. Or we are obliged to postulate a necessary Being, who produced or created this energy.
