The Problem of the Quasi Necessity of a Contingent Infinite Regress Associated with Atheism.

Atheism may posit an infinite series of causes to account for the existence of contingent substances.

But such an infinite regress has the character of an infinite and therefore necessary thing.

For a thing that has infinite being is connatural only to God, who is being without limit.

Therefore, an infinite series is almost like God, which infers the infinite series is a quasi-necessary series.

Yet the same series is also the cause of a contingent creature.

The series is then quasi necessary according to the infinite being of the series, but contingent according to the effect of the creature caused by the series.

As the infinite series is quasi-necessary, but also contingent, the series is ontological convoluted.

But ontology is concerned with being, which is always simple.

For being is modally always one with itself.

Therefore, the infinite series is ontologically convoluted contrary to the nature of being.

Therefore, the infinite series is not a concrete series, but only a fiction.

Therefore atheism, which relies upon the infinite series is also a fiction.
