Hello, in school today we had a discussion about Thomas Aquinas' Cosmological theory.
When shortened, the theory basically states that ''Everything must have a cause. Nothing comes from nothing'' following on from this famous quote, he believes that if everything has to have a cause, then something must of caused the universe to be created. He believed God or ''the first cause'' must have created it. Read more about the Cosmological Theory here:

There are many visible flaws in this theory and over hundreds of years, people developed thorough arguments to the theory. I also have my views about this theory and I must say I am very skeptical about it.
I was thinking to myself, if God was the creator of everything, if there was nothing that existed before God, then why did he choose to 'cause' Satan to exist? I have never read the bible, so forgive my lack of knowledge about the origin of Satan.
Thanks.
