Dangerous Video Could Trigger Another Great Awakening If Too Many View

by Smitty This is lengthy, but worth your time, especially the first 38 minutes or so: Positive arguments given by Dr. Craig include that God is the best explanation: why anything at all exists, for the origin of the universe, the applicability of mathematics to the physical world, for the fine tuning of the universe […]
