@edgarblythe,
matter can't be created or destroyed therefore you exist and don't die. For matter to change form there needs to be a thing that determines how to cause a cause to cause something in a certain way. Every way not to do something needs to be determined not to cause the incorrect effect going through everything possible cause which conceptually includes your life and your self.
every cause has a cause including the causes of causing causes leading up in a triangular lines of cause and effect and cause of cause and effect and cause of that cause. The triangular pattern is correct because a singe cause of all causes cannot reach every cause in space.
In time every cause needs to be caused to caused to occur at that certain point therefore an eternal loop, which is incorrect, but is caused not to cause therefore creating the eternal loop.
