William Lane Craig

William Lane Craig (born August 23, 1949) is an American philosopher and theologian known for his contributions to the philosophy of religion, philosophical theology, and historical Jesus studies. One of the most visible contemporary proponents of natural theology, Craig has contributed to a number of arguments for the existence of God. In 1979, Craig authored The Kalam Cosmological Argument

While Craig holds that theism can be demonstrated, he also embraces the Plantingian view that argument is unnecessary for justified belief in God.
