It's a skewed reasoning since it leads to infinite regress when you ask for an explanation of God's existence, I don't see any problem with side-stepping God and saying the Universe perpetuates itself, but I feel like there must be some trans-material "will" that keeps this perpetuation going, even if it is nothing more than a tension inherent in the universe. Tension in that sense is a quasi-spiritual entity that for me carries implications about God.
In this proof, I don't feel comfortable assuming points 1 or 2.
