Because the bleaters using the first cause argument say
*e*v*e*r*y*t*h*i*n*g* has a cause.
It does appear as though everything needs a cause, yet that doesn't allow for
a beginning. The origin of everything is therefore outside our current knowledge.
Or not everything needs to be caused. Since we KNOW that this is
true, it's a lot more reasonable to presume that the Big Bang is
uncaused than that some uncaused thing was needed to cause the BB.
