Tentatively Christian; looking for a reasonable discussion
RE: Tentatively Christian; looking for a reasonable discussion

Esquilax is correct. The Kalam doesn't even pretend to argue for "such an entity" as God when everyone knows invoking the term connotes intelligence or personality. The Kalam just argues for self-sufficiency. Well, cool, by the definitions and premises employed, regardless of their actual correctness or soundness, it only stands to reason that nature is a self-sufficient system.
