Have We been "caged up" in causality for a reason?

P.S. Though all answers are obviously welcome, "I" am NOT asking this question from a religious point of view.

Take a look at what this kid has to say also (just another point of view, on whether there is value to non-causal thinking):

I kinda doubt that the UNiverse could exist without causality.

Nope. Let me ask you: Can all the sciences be similarly saved? Yes, if their basic principle, the law of causality - that a given cause must always be followed by a given effect - can be shown, like space and time, to be so inherent in all the processes of understanding that no future experience can be conceived that would violate or escape it.
Great question. Have a wonderful day!

We exist not becasue of the Causality that has been occured, we born in the earth by the will of nature before we could have mind and now we find it(the Cansality by the way of science),so thing exist before we be aware of truth among them.

No. I must admit that causality can be redirected or aborted one way or another on some occasions, but causality seems to be a very integral part of life as we know it. God Bless you.

I think Vonnegut tried to tackle this question in one of his novels...But if you're not a fan of his works, then maybe I'll put it another way... We "experience" life in certain sequence of ideas, emotions, events, etc... but then there's is also the idea that memories can be refreshed which also link the present with events in the past...
I haven't looked at the Youtube stuff, but it's certainly an interesting idea...

There is always a cause...
its just a matter of how you wish to explain the cause that makes you "insane" or "normal"
To say God created everything is unscientific and extremely dangerous. If we let because "God made it happen" be the final answer to things were would civilization be? I dare not ponder!

Without causality there would be Nothing.
Causality is an essential property.

No, coz it forms part of the cycle which causes birth and rebirth to occur. Without it, the whole logic of existence would not be the same.

Yes, the reason is that we cage ourselves up in our voluntarily assumed limitations. The causation cycle is our own creation.
