And I would add the problem of immanence. Even if there was a "first cause" to the Universe, nothing grants that this first cause still exists in time

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but it seems like what you're talking about is the relation between causation and the nature of time. I do think that a valid argument can be constructed on this matter, but, as I was traying to say in my post, in a discussion I think it is more effective to point to the bigger problem with the argument (namely, that we have no way of deducing that presumed "cause" would have to be divine) rather than start complicated discussions on the nature of time and causation. So I would like to discourage from that. In my experience, many seem to have a hard time to follow such discussions about the nature of time, they tend to become too abstract/complicated for many. Thinking of time in a four-dimensional way is not something everyone can easily do, unfortunately.
