What Are the Cosmological Arguments for God?

Dr. Craig often defends the Kalam cosmological argument, but are there other cosmological arguments for God?


The cosmological argument more broadly would simply seek a ground for the existence of the universe, a sufficient reason why something exists rather than nothing. And that kind of cosmological argument is consistent with Aristotle's doctrine of the eternity of the universe – the universe is co-eternal with God but nevertheless it depends upon him for its order and its being. So that would be a broader cosmological argument which is, I think, also persuasive and defensible.
