A Criticism of Cosmological Atheology

By Miles Donahue

I. Introduction

In less than 24 hours after publishing “General Relativity Proves What, You Say?: A Response to L. A. Mitchell”, Mr. Mitchell wrote an eight page counter-response [1]. In this article, I’ll review key terms used in the argument, criticize his responses to my refutation, expand on my original criticisms, and end with concluding thoughts. I take it as given that he and I are expected to maintain an appropriate level of respect and cordiality towards one another as we discuss these issues and arguments.

A Defense of Cosmological Atheology

By L.A. Mitchell

I: Introduction

”The beginning is the end

Keeps coming round again”

- How To Destroy Angels, ”The Loop Closes”

I recently published an article called “General relativity entails that the universe has no external cause”. It is necessary to read this article in order to understand the arguments being made (a link will be provided in the reference page for this purpose). [1] The Christian apologist Miles Donahue has responded to this argument on his website [2], and I seek to offer a defense of my ”cosmological atheology” in this paper.
