Why the cause must be PERSONAL: (1) a mind uniquely fits spaceless/timeless/immaterial yet has causal powers, (2) state-event causation from timelessness requires a decision to act, (3) absence of determinism in nothingness requires libertarian free will.

Why the cause is a personal agent

Three arguments for personhood: (1) Abstract objects lack causal powers; minds don't. (2) State-event causation (like a man choosing to stand from a chair) requires a decision — transitioning from a timeless state to causing an event requires agency. (3) With no time, space, or deterministic chain, and nothing random possible, the cause must have libertarian free will — which only personal agents possess.
