correct. you could use it to argue for the divine flame. and then i would argue that God is a better explanation by using supplementary arguments and evidence to support my claim.

I don't think it is speculation.
Can i provide some type of coercive proof? No.
Can i prove God exists the way i can prove a square has four right angles?
No.
But I can demonstrate that Christianity when compared with its competitors best explains the data we have.
Christianity is superior to every other worldview in doing what it must do.
I'm sure you think that you can demonstrate the epistemic superiority of Christianity, but I'm likewise sure that the Muslim apologist feels the same way for Islam. It's the theological commitments that drive the arguments.
First off, nothingness cannot be investigated. Nothingness possesses no properties subject to investigation.
Nothingness is not a state of affairs. Nothingness possesses no properties that would be labeled states of affairs.

You said "arguments and evidence"...
I'ld like to hear more about the "evidence" part.
...
Every event has a cause.
I consider this to be a fundamental law of reason,

I have evidence. Cosmology confirms the Divine Flame. The cosmic microwave background radiation is the ethereal afterglow of the Divine Flame that spawned the universe.
I see you are a big Billy Craig fan.
Well, if you are one that likes to make assumptions without evidence, Kalam is something that will clearly appeal to you.
Is you're interpretation of scripture infallible?
