''Newton's 3rd Law takes C&E into account.'' No it doesn't. Period. Newton's 3rd law never said that something is always caused by something.
Okay. Let me show you where your mistake is. It's simple, but it's tiny...
Astargath's version of Newton's 3rd Law: "To every action there is an equal and opposite action."
Now, if anyone would compare
Astargath's version to the real, Newton version, he will be able to see that Newton's 3rd Law includes cause and effect, possibly among other things.

Where does it say that everything has a cause? Point it out to me.
