On February 21st, 2014, Dr. William Lane Craig (PhD. Philosophy, Theology) and Dr. Sean Carroll (PhD. Astronomy) participated in the Greer Heard Forum, which seeks to promote intelligent dialogue between believers and nonbelievers. The formal debate, which was over the relevance of theism in contemporary cosmology, was followed the next day by a series of responses from other scholars, two chosen by Dr. Craig, and two chosen by Dr. Carroll. The clip above shows the portions of the debate which the two participants devoted to a back-and-forth discussion of the Kalam Cosmological Argument, a traditional argument of natural theology defended most prominently by Dr. Craig on the contemporary scene.
