Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The ancient kalam cosmological argument maintains that the series of past events is finite and that therefore the universe began to exist. Two recent scientific discoveries have yielded plausible prima facie physical evidence for the beginning of the universe. The expansion of the universe points to its beginningto a Big Bangas one retraces the universes expansion in time. And the second law of thermodynamics, which implies that the universes energy is progressively degrading, suggests that the universe began with an initial low entropy condition.The kalam cosmological argumentperhaps the most discussed philosophical argument for Gods existence in recent decadesmaintains that whatever begins to exist must have a cause. And since the universe began to exist, there must be a transcendent cause of its beginning, a conclusion which is confirmatory of theism. So this medieval argument for the finitude of the past has received fresh wind in its sails from recent scientific discoveries.This collection reviews and assesses the merits of the latest scientific evidences for the universes beginning. It ends with the kalam arguments conclusion that the universe has a causea personal cause with properties of theological significance.

Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Did the universe begin to exist? If so, did it have a cause? Or could it have come into existence uncaused, from nothing? These questions are taken up by the medievalthough recently-revivedkalam cosmological argument, which has arguably been the most discussed philosophical argument for Gods existence in recent decades. The kalams line of reasoning maintains that the series of past events cannot be infinite but rather is finite. Since the universe could not have come into being uncaused, there must be a transcendent cause of the universes beginning, a conclusion supportive of theism.This anthology on the philosophical arguments for the finitude of the past asks: Is an infinite series of past events metaphysically possible? Should actual infinites be restricted to theoretical mathematics, or can an actual infinite exist in the concrete world? These essays by kalam proponents and detractors engage in lively debate about the nature of infinity and its conundrums; about frequently-used kalam argument paradoxes of Tristram Shandy, the Grim Reaper, and Hilberts Hotel; and about the infinity of the future.
