Metaphysical argument for the existence of God[edit] William Lane Craig, who popularised and is notable for defending the Kalam cosmological argument, argues that the infinite is impossible, whichever perspective the viewer takes, and so there must always have been one unmoved thing to begin the universe. ^ Scott David Foutz, An Examination of Thomas Aquinas' Cosmological Arguments as found in the Five Ways Archived 2008-05-09 at the Wayback Machine, Quodlibet Online Journal of Christian Theology and Philosophy "Cosmological Argument: Does the Universe Require a First Cause?
