On whether the dogma of Creation can be admitted in philosophy
1) The set of possible events is infinitely bigger than the set of existing events.

2) Everything that exists is possible, and in its possibility lays its very essence.

3) Therefore, by 1) and 2), possible events don't arise from existing events, since there is no way of conceiving the lesser originating the greater (in absolute terms), and it cannot be figured out in which manner real things could cause their own condition of possibility.

4) For the same reason, by 2), the set of existing events is not derived from itself.

5) Thus, everything that exists in time comes from God only. Therefore, there is a Creation.
