We don't must any such thing - but we can and may.We must assume a cause, so we must base theories on an existence that was caused rather than aiming at cause-less-ness and failing to describe it alongside many other inconsistencies concerning things happening without causes. — Barkon
"Assume" whatever you like but you've not offered a valid argument yet and without any demonstrable evidence of either "causality" (Hume) or "some divine force" (Epicurus, Spinoza, Hume) you're just talking out of your *ss – poor reasoning at best.Causality itself implies things are caused, so I would assume causality has a cause, it is the case directly, probably by some divine force. — Barkon

But there is not a cause for the Sun to provide us with light every day. — javi2541997
Things don't pop up for no reason, in fact, that is an assertion that implies a cause(in this case, 'no reason')
Given this, it is wiser to assert that the universe came into existence by some manifestation in, per se, a multiverse, than it is to park randomly on the conjecture it just popped up for no reason. — Barkon
The premise that the universe "popped into" existence is incoherent. It implies there existed something, into which the universe popped.Things don't pop up for no reason, in fact, that is an assertion that implies a cause(in this case, 'no reason').
