I'm posting a link to a very important issue to try and understand about modern cosmology and how it is regularly misused by WLC and similar apologists: www.ex-christian.net/topic/82597-the-failed-cosmology-of-william-lane-craig/#commentsAll of that reading amounts to a basic insight. And appeal by apologist's to a singularity at the "beginning" of the universe. The problem is that singularity theory was advanced by Hawking and Penrose (see the link for details) and then pretty much falsified by the time of the 1990's. In other words, Craig took up an argument relying on singularity theory AFTER the theory had already been falsified. The idea that the universe had a fixed beginning is without basis. The claim that the universe's fixed beginning proves the opening verses of Genesis is then and therefore even further without basis. And yet the arguments still show up as if the entire thing hasn't been falsified for over 20 years now. If you encounter any one trying to make Craig's arguments, you can read through the link and see all of the details that go into negativing Craig's argument. Enjoy.
