How does Thomas Aquinas prove the existence of God?
Efficient Cause (The Uncaused Cause): Every effect has an efficient cause. Nothing can be the efficient cause of itself. An infinite regress of efficient causes is impossible, because if there were no first cause, there would be no subsequent causes or effects. Therefore, there must be a First Efficient Cause, uncaused by anything else, and this we call God.

What do you think about this argument ?
