I listened to this and I'm rather convinced this is the best explication of the Cosmological Argument I've ever heard (and I've heard a few). It's particularly helpful for discussing the arguments for the existence of God with some of those "smarter than you" atheists who try to throw obscure cosmology (from bouncing universes to bubble universes to string theory - it's all addressed in the lectures) at you and expect you to fold. The examples and illustrations given are easy to remember and explain - this should definitely go on the "must listen" list. It's also quite helpful that he cites his sources. If it's important for you to get the sources, do remember to bring a pencil.

The speaker is Protestant apologist William Lane Craig. I've blogged about him before, so if you need a recap on his bio just click here.
