It is preferred to live in a zombie apocalypse then an alien invasion apocalypse

The Cosmological Argument is Sound
I am challenging Cauhtcoatl, an atheist, to a debate about the soundness of the cosmological argument. Soundness means that the premises of the argument are true, and that the conclusion follows logically from the premises. God is defined as the timeless (therefore beginningless), immaterial, spaceless, omnipotent,...
