"The paradox is then "solved" by assuming that the first cause is uncaused, and "exists" just because, for no cause or reason whatsoever, as a logical necessity."

A logical necessity is otherwise known as a reason.

The first cause argument is a logical argument - the very opposite of "for no reason."

If you have a similar syllogism that works, you know I'm going to ask to see your work.

What's the reason the uncaused "exists"? Whatever reason you give me makes the uncaused dependent or caused. Self-refuting.
