Sure it does (so far as it goes). But extrapolating causal reasoning from within the domain in which it applies and is defined (i.e. the universe) to the entire domain itself, does NOT do it for me... and that being a textbook case of a compositional fallacy doesn't really help either.Cause and effect doesn't work for you?
In any case, its a self-defeating line of reasoning since causality still has one exception- God. (and there's no empirical basis for the distinction between things that began to exist and things that exist anyways- this switch in premises for the cosmological argument is completely ad hoc and measured for the desired conclusion)
