Saying that God created the world is not denying an infinite universe.

Causal chains are great philosophy fun but are lame in the real world. Nuclear physics has a core property of "spontaneous decay", i.e. the atom decayed without cause. It's not that the cause is undiscovered but can't exist.
Why should I consider philosophical causality when real world causality doesn't play by those rules.
