'The universe began to exist.'
Problematic and unestablished.
'Everything that begins to exist has a cause.'
A large and vocal body of particle physicists disagree with this.
'Therefore the universe had a cause.'
Since the two premises are on shaky foundations, there is no compelling reason to accept the conclusion.
That being said, is it possible that the universe does have a cause, but Craig's parameters regarding the nature of that cause are pretty ad hoc. Further, whether the universe is cause ort uncaused, neither is going to be determined by KCA.
