uncaused causes

[Abracadabra]

What are your views on the KCA other than it's wrong

I personally don't see where it should automatically follow that just because something had a 'cause' that 'proves' the existence of a God.

Why would that prove the existence of a God?

Also, we accept quantum randomness and that quantum particles can pop in and out of existence without necessarily having a specific "cause". In fact, one of the theories for the start of the Big Bang is indeed that it all started as a random quantum fluctuation.

So I don't see where cause, or no cause, would have anything at all to do with the question of "god" or "no god".

and why do you think this argument has been so convincing to so many people?

Religious people have a dire need to believe. Therefore they will jump on the bandwagon of any idea that they see religious leaders suggesting or supporting. It's as simple as that.

My question to Christians would be more along the lines of, "Why not then run off and worship Zeus? Or Odin, or Thor, or any number of other gods. Or even mystical religions?"

Those kinds of ideas don't loan support to the biblical picture of God anyway.
