You understand it better than Eleven, but there's a lot you don't.
No one claims that a first cause argument gets you to the God of the Bible.
I didn’t say it gets you to the god of the Bible, I said that it doesn’t establish a theistic god.
And William Lane Craig (among others) makes the claim that the argument DOES get you to the god of the Bible. Perhaps you should take it up with him.
