Resource summary
Cosmological Argument
Aquinas
First Way
Observe things are in a process of motion
Everything is changing from a potential state to actual
Something can't be actual and potential at the same time
E.g. if something is actually hot it can't be potentially hot but can be potentially cold
Everything in motion must have been put in it by another
Chain of motion can't go on for infinite
Necessary to have a first mover
Second Way
Nothing is an efficient cause of itself
Efficient cause follows in order: 1,2,3
Not possible for efficient cause to go back to infinity
Necessary to admit first efficient cause
Leibniz
