AnswerThe "argument of the first cause" is a theological concept that says that everthing has a prior cause, and that the prior cause must, in turn, have a prior cause - like links in a chain. This is used in an attempt to prove that the world must have a prior cause, which is God.

But the argument breaks down because it does not attempt to explain what was the prior cause of God. It is one of the long-recognised weaknesses of religious explanations of the origins of the universe that either the universe itself, or its creator God, must be the first cause in creation and can not be explained further. Proponents of this religious position insist that God does not have to come from any prior cause.

If we accept the Christian position, then God made Adam and Eve, but no one made God.
