I do see it this way. I had seen reality like this, it gets to roll off your shoulders after you lived like it for so long. Nagarajuna hits too close to home for me. I thought their was a little more to his way. lol. But I can see why there is no first cause in Buddhism. No first cause = no first blame either and the wheel of life can keep spinning around freely for the next one to get on . Buddha steered away from a god figure to allow his disciples to figure the self out rightly. The transient wheel called life is the teacher. Know thyself, trust thyself and the pure workings of the mind since everything stems from the mind. Everything we see is just as it is and the rest is only speculation.
