4. The Kalam Cosmological Arguments, I: Philosophical Arguments for the Finitude of the Past.

Author

BROWN, JOSHUA MATTHAN

Subjects
*ISLAMIC theology, *FINITE, The, *ARGUMENT, *PHILOSOPHICAL literature, *PHILOSOPHY of religion, *PROOF of God
Abstract

Hence, according to Craig, Grünbaum has not successfully shown the first premise of KCA to be false. However, it is important to note that part 1 sets the stage with a stimulating exchange between Adolf Grünbaum and Craig over the first premise of KCA, i.e. the proposition that "Whatever begins to exist has a cause of its beginning". Given the remarkable amount of philosophical interest KCA has garnered since William Lane Craig's ground-breaking revival of the argument in 1979, it was inevitable that a compendium of scholarly essays on it would emerge.
