The Things That Exist in Our World Are Dependent

The things that exist in our world are the way they are, because something else is responsible for them being that way. If it wasn't different from them, then it would be dependent too. This being can be called the first being, because nothing comes before it. It doesn't have to deal with anything, or contend with anything. Instead, it is what other things depend on. We could go through such points in detail, but it would take all night and much longer than that. Thinking about God is slow, painstaking work.
