    The origin of existence is an unsolved riddle.  No human being has solved this riddle.  You have not solved it, nor Aquinas or Craig, or Krauss.

    Something from nothing is irrational.

    An actual infinite is irrational.

    The speculation of god solves nothing and is simply special pleading for an actual irrational, that is, an actual infinite.  All the same problems of the irrationality of an actual infinite apply to god just as they apply to any other speculation of the origin of existence.

     

    There are no sound arguments for god, they all contain logical defects.  Aquinas, Scotus, Plantinga, Feser, Craig and on and on.  Every one of them fail.

    Krauss is a particularly galling failure.  I have diminished expectations from theists.  We live among a demon haunted population, it is our human history that most people invent ghosts and spirits and gods of various sorts.  But for an educated atheist scientist like Krauss to peddle an equivocation as though it is a solution to the great unsolved riddle is particularly disgusting.
