Infinite Regression Fallacy: Failure of Logic and Evidence

Regression Fallacy: Ascribing a cause where none exists in situations where natural fluctuations exist, while failing to account for natural fluctuations.
Infinite regress is not a sufficient explanatory mechanism. It does not resolve the problem it is invoked to answer but instead postpones it indefinitely. Each belief or claim is said to be justified by another, which itself requires justification, and so on without end. This structure provides no grounding point—it defers resolution rather than offering one.
Beliefs are not equivalent to facts.
While beliefs may be informed by facts, they remain interpretations, models, or assumptions. A belief cannot ultimately justify another belief without some form of evidence or shared foundation. Otherwise, the structure risks circularity or infinite regress: “A is true because of B, B is true because of C, and so on without closure.” This is not explanation but deferral.
In cosmological contexts, infinite regress fails to answer origin…
