why would you, though?
I'd say it behaves more like the rationals, no? If you say A causes B, you can (by normal intuition) find an event in between, serving as a link between the two.
Let's say, the strictly positive rationals, for example, to fit the "always something before" part, no? Why would that be any less valid? |
But you CAN regress infinitly in the rationals. Part of the argument is that contingent beings cannot cause themselves and thus you NEED a necessary being. Making it more akin to a natural numbers row.
