It's reasonable faith with Dr. William Lane Craig.

Thanks so much for listening. I'm Kevin Harris. Dr. Craig is always being asked about the so-called deconstruction trend

that's been quite popular lately. Deconstruction means different things to different people,

but it often means deconversion from one's faith. It can also mean a change in the majority

of what one once believed, and we all go

through that in varying degrees, but I want to encourage you to listen to an upcoming podcast on

this subject. An atheist YouTuber thinks Dr. Craig has deconstruction all wrong. So Dr. Craig responds. Again, that's coming up in the near future.

So watch for that podcast. And please, if you can, support the work of reasonable faith with your

prayers and financial support. Whatever you can give is so appreciated. You can give online at

reasonable faith.org.

Today we have some questions that people have sent to Dr. Craig at the Reasonable Faith website

and to Facebook.

So, Bill, let's get some answers from you.

Thank you. That's Steve in the U.S.

I agree with Steve that the Kalam cosmological argument, if sound, invalidates pantheistic

religions like Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism. And while I've never had a debate or dialogue
