If so, please answer this:
Does the fact that an isolated radioactive particle can decay for no reason negate the "first cause" argument?

Of course you don't understand Fireball.

Quailman: again, note the word "God" in the question.
My point is that they do not ALWAYS require energy input.

One of the things necessary for something to someone to be "God" is that they would have to be the "First Cause". If something else existed before or outside of them as its cause, then they would not be "God". So of course, God is the First Cause.
Your actual question is not where God is First Cause, but whether a First Cause is needed or exist. Not really the same thing.
As God exist (talk to him regularly, so I know), and as God is First Cause, then a First Cause does exist.
Simple enough question to answer.
Talk to him yourself, if you need further info about him.

the place do you get the assumption and generalization that "each little thing had to have a common reason"? God isn't a "brought about" being. As for mass power consistently having existed, even the scientists do no longer believe this. As for me and my enjoyed ones, we are able to serve the Lord. MARANATHA! Come, Lord Jesus, COME!

Are you aware of the Super-String Theory M-Theory Origin of the Universe. That this is only one of an infinite number of universes all with different laws of physics.. isolated radioactive particle decay is nothing. Just when man thinks he has a handle on the universe ..he finds out he is just beginning.

Not really. What made the particle in the first place? Temporally incited decay does not equate to disproof of an initial universal instigator.

The Universe IS God.
The decay occurs because of the instability of the particle, right? That's your cause.
First cause is an illusion of the human mind which can't grasp the First Law of Thermodynamics (matter and energy can not be created nor destroyed).

hmmm..... really....... trying to prove the existence of a fiction character created by ancient myths using complicated science sounds more like mystery movies.
Things are what they are.... if the radioactive particle decays for no reason.... I don't have to go to church until i find a reason!!!

as i said before, this belongs in the science section
usually radioactive decay requires energy

Sure, why not? For me it doesn't really matter 'cause life is pretty much the same regardless.
