Kalam:
It assumes something can't come from nothing. This is unfounded as we have no experience of "nothing".
It assumes the universe came into existence, we have no evidence of that, it may have always existed in some state.
And finally, the conclusion only points to a "cause" which is not even necessarily a "being". Even if it was, a being isn't necessarily a god. Even if it was, it's not any particular God.
