Kalam's Cosmological Argument Fails (response to DawahAddicts Video)

Responding primarily to DawahAddicts video "Produce Your Proof: God" and by proxy Kalam's Cosmological Argument, I attempt to illustrate flaws in the arguments premise.

Please Watch DawahAddict's original argument here:

Watch Hugo Ruskin's Refutation of Hilbert's Hotel here:

you got it right when u said you are "bound" you are bound to this life of the world. you have a soul..u have a mind.you have the abillity to recognize right from wrong. your obviously smart but this earth and this universe this body and all its complexity is by design my friend. read the quran and the "scientific" information provided in that book and you will ask yourself...how did this man in the middle of the desert know this. how could he? doesnt mean u will believe but it will make u think

[TheEarthAbides]

@imwatchuvideo If that book (quran) really contained scientific info why didn't any muslim know it did until a christian said (it in order to sell a book). It's the same thing with Nostradamus - really all you need are vague passages that can be twisted to mean whatever anyone wants them to later. That info you are talking about convinces no one. you said this universe and us are by design. Scientific info (like the kind you say exists in the quran) says otherwise.

@TheEarthAbides please could you tell how sentific info states that the universe is not desing?

"Infinity cannot exist"

Baseless assertion.

"KCA only shows a rational argument for there being a cause for the universe."

No, it's a completely irrational argument based on human intuition. 

[FaceLikeTheSun]

Decent refutation but the last point that was made is wrong. Infinity cannot exist as a physical reality but is entirely plausible in the immaterial of metaphysical reality. anyone who uses the KCA will tell you the same. Also, KCA only shows a rational argument for there being a cause for the universe. It doesn't say therefore the cause is God.

you do know that Quantum fluctuations does not take place in absolute nothingness. It actually takes place out of a larger quantum field ,which is a part of physical reality, that enables particles to come in and out of existence, So you would need to address that because the scientist out there who assert this as a explanation certainly do not.

[kingspider1000]

you said infinity is impossible, yet was quite unclear as to the reasons for believing that. infinity isnt composed of an indefinite number of smaller finite parts, if that is what youre thinking.

infinity by definition means unrestricted and unlimited in every way whatsoever. how does the finite mind detect infinity using gadgets that are designed to study finite objects ?

[kingspider1000]

your argument : cause and effect do not apply to particles at the quantum level

my argument : yet , if you admit that all particles at a quantum level behave in the same manner and their behaviour is true in all cases, then it strongly suggests a law based on which these particles are behaving in such a predictable way. laws suggest a design or constricted path of behaviour out of many paths of behaviours, which in turn reveals a mind or intelligence designing that.

[kingspider1000]

your argument : space and time has always existed eternally in a cycle of rebirth. meaning, an unexplained predictable process repeated itself indefinitely from the past.

my argument : logic also shows that a process (something that is predictable and follows a certain pattern) cannot exist without a beginning. so that theory of the universe's beginning is wrong.
