    Saying that God created the world is not denying an infinite universe.

      Yep. Hart agrees. I love his discussion on cosmology with Kuhn

      @weezy894 Read Hart's 2014 book The Experience of God or Josh Rasmussen's work. Or check out Pat Flynn's new book The Best Argunent for God

      @@TheProdigalMeowMeowMeowReturns I don't necessarily think it would be, I'm just curious on how to answer the objection that the universe does not need an explanation due to its infinite nature. Thanks for the book recommendation

    Causal chains are great philosophy fun but are lame in the real world. Nuclear physics has a core property of "spontaneous decay", i.e. the atom decayed without cause. It's not that the cause is undiscovered but can't exist.
    Why should I consider philosophical causality when real world causality doesn't play by those rules.
