But it is evident that, by this idea of a supreme author of all, which I place as the foundation of all inquiries into nature, I do not mean to assert the existence of such a being, or that I have any knowledge of its existence; and, consequently, I do not really deduce anything from the existence of this being, but merely from its idea, that is to say, from the nature of things in this world, in accordance with this idea.

 But to say that any thing is produced, of to express myself more properly, comes into existence, without a cause, is not to affirm, that it is itself its own cause; but on the contrary in excluding all external causes, excludes a fortiori the thing itself, which is created. There are only three modes of proving the existence of a Deity, on the grounds of speculative reason. (Time passes not, but in it passes the existence of the changeable. Consequently time, in which all changes of phenomena must be cogitated, remains and changes not, because it is that in which succession and coexistence can be represented only as determinations thereof. Learn to TRULY succeed working from HOME with our TURN-KEY system I CAN SHOW YOU AN OPPORTUNITY THAT IS NOTHING SHORT OF A MIRACLE Does that sound like something you would be interested in? From this contingency we infer, by the help of transcendental conceptions alone, the existence of something absolutely necessary; and, still advancing, proceed from the conception of the absolute necessity of the first cause to the completely determined or determining conception thereof--the conception of an all-embracing reality. It does this by applying the order of time to phenomena, and their existence.
