1. Everything which has a beginning must have a capable and sufficient Cause. 
2. The First Cause, whatever it is, must be Self-Existent, or it must defy the known Natural Laws. 
3. A Self-Existent First Cause, by definition, defies natural laws; therefore the First Cause is necessarily Super-Natural. 
4. The self-existent First Cause, whatever it is, must be accepted by faith. There is no “proof” of any possible First Cause. (No other witnesses; no enduring, contemporaneous physical evidence.) 
5. Evidence exists that points to a probable First Cause. 
6. The true First Cause will be reasonably supported by the evidence. 
7. The evidence available to all parties is the same. The framework within which it is interpreted (worldview) is what differs. 
8. Valid interpretation must satisfy “is”, rather than “sup...

First Law of Thermodynamics:

            Matter and energy are relative. In a closed system, neither are created or lost. (A closed system is isolated from outside influence) “… the fundamental principle of physics that the total energy of an isolated system is constant despite internal changes”; energy changes form but does not increase or decrease qty.

ΔU = Q – W, where U = change in internal energy, Q = heat added to the system, and W = Work done by the system.

Second Law of Thermodynamics:

            In the absence of outside influence, everything falls into a state of increasing disorder (entropy; biodegradation, etc.)

Third Law of Thermodynamics:

            The entropy of a pure perfect crystal is zero at zero degrees Kelvin...
