I recently completed a series with an atheist as we had this debate: Is A Prime Mover Necessary? It was very entertaining, very enlightening and very thought provoking. My opponent was the eAtheist named Rev, and he was much more courteous, much more polite, and much more intelligent than myself. But despite that, he is wrong, a Prime Mover is necessary for the universe to exist, and I think I made that case thoroughly in our dialogue. The links below are the fulness of our debate.

This is a continuation of my debate Is A Prime Mover Necessary? (First Rebuttal). When the cosmological argument for the existence of a Prime Mover was initially formulated, it was of course, a priori, that is to say that it was absent any scientific or empirical data, simply because there was none available at the time.
