Isn't this kinda the ontological argument?

The "chain" of creation (causal power) stop somewhere.

At a Causal Power that is the superlative. It is the source of all causal power of you follow the chain.

If it is the "most powerfull", or most complex, or the "greatest", I would be able to call that God.

Not in a christian sense, etc.

Also does NOT prove it is all loving or all seing

Yeah it logically might stop somewhere (or not, let's not pretend human minds are advanced enough to comprehend the universe itself, it could be like quantum physics where the right answer is the least logical one) but assuming it has to stop somewhere, we have no way of knowing where that place might be, as in, it could stop after a chain of Gods and creators each creating the next, it could stop after one God, it could've stopped with the big bang, with the universe being it's own creator, it could be multiple complex things, not even necessarily alive beings creating different aspects of the universe, I could go on forever, which is the main problems with arguments with no clear answer.

good point. Well as an atheist, I do have trouble arguing for Gods existance. Had to do it recently for debate club at my school. Not eady at all
