RE: Questions on the Kalam Cosmological argument

Usually Craig starts by illustrating why actual infinites are logically "absurd", and from there he draws the conclusion that the universe is finite and must have a beginning. He then asserts that this requires a timeless non-physical all powerful creator, since this is required to create a physical universe out of absolutely "nothing".

How would you respond to this claim?
