| Abstract |
Explicit atheism is a philosophical position according to which belief in God is irrational, and
thus it should be rejected. In this paper, I revisit, extend, and defend against the most telling
counter arguments the Kalām Cosmological Argument in order to show that explicit atheism
must be deemed as a positively irrational position.
