ARE A NECESSITY FOR ALL THINGS

A Preliminary Clarification for Consideration

The following is offered for consideration to those who will encounter arguments against the existence of the One and Three that extend beyond the more primitive demand for human-centered, emotionally and mentally reciprocal, or anthropomorphic relationships with the divine, though it is certainly a bit more complicated than such a generic description.

A frequent error in such arguments is the assumption that impersonal relations toward creation imply a lack of personhood, or that a finite being such as a human is capable of meaningfully relating—through subjective experience alone—to entities that are nonphysical, nonlocal, and ontologically prior to the conditions that allow human perception, cognition, and emotion to exist in the first place.

How the Universe Cannot Be Its Own Cause

Observations of structure and geometry appear throughout existence, from the smallest atomic arrangements to cosmic formations. While we see these patterns are consistent and pervasive, they alone do not imply that the universe is self-caused. Understanding the origin of the universe requires careful logical and philosophical analysis alongside empirical evidence.

When examined thoroughly, it becomes clear that the Druan deities are not deities of the gaps, nor reliant on scientific “gaps” to justify their existence. Modern cosmology provides strong evidence for a finite past within spacetime, but the ultimate origin remains a philosophical question beyond empirical measurement.

Why the Universe Cannot Be Self-Caused

The claim that the universe is its own uncaused cause is challenged on two main grounds:
