Does that have to mean it's not sentient?

Is it honestly logical for rules to just be there with no apparent cause?
Well, something has to be there without cause. You think the rules of the universe have a creator. But continuing to follow your logic, that creator must have a cause, therefore another creator, and that creator must also have a creator, and so on. It's an infinite loop. People just assume that creation is so logical, but it really isn't. Us humans have never truly witnessed creation, When we "create" things we're really just rearranging molecules and atoms.

Perhaps you should do the same if you think it's relevant to this discussion.

Because rules just existing doesn't seem very logical. I feel a sentient cause needs to be at play.

But that's not logical either. And rules don't just exist. They're a consequence of the properties of a thing. Like how water is not solid because the particles aren't stuck together like they are with a solid.

Why isn't that logical? And why is the consequence a must?

A sentient would need an infinite series of prior sentients unless you believe they appeared from nothing.

It's called cause and effect. A basic principle of the universe. Everything has it. If you find something that doesn't then you probably deserve the Nobel prize.

Well let's say time is a concept only the universe in under control by. The creator of the universe, being out of the confines of it naturally, has no aging capability. Imagine time not being a concept to the creator at all.

Hopefully this makes sense.

Time is not a concept. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacetime

Yes it is used as a scalar as well but at the same time it's a physical thing which can be manipulated and distorted like water.

I worded my post poorly. Time is universal it says. So if there is a creator of the universe, couldn't that creator be outside of the confines of time as well as the universe? That's not incomprehensible is it?

That's perfectly reasonable actually but something would still need to cause the creation of the creator somewhere even if not in our own universe.

That seems like a whole 'nother discussion though to be perfectly honest.
