W.L. Craig’s God Is Also Called Brahman

R&I – FS

God

Underlin8ng William Lane Craig’s concept of the “first uncaused cause,” a poster here argues this is what many mean when they refer to God:

The argument from a first cause makes a first cause a logical necessity. Those who are not offended of threatened by the concept of God tend to consider this first cause to be God
–A Poster on the Religion Channel

Brahman

And, in Hinduism, Brahman is described thusly:

“In Hinduism, Brahman connotes the highest universal principle, the ultimate reality in the universe. In major schools of Hindu philosophy, it is the material, efficient, formal and final cause of all that exists. It is the pervasive, infinite, eternal truth which does not change, yet is the cause of all changes”

Questions

  1. Is William Lane Craig describing Brahman, when he refers to an “uncaused first cause”?
  2. Are God and Brahman one and the same?
  3. Are Christianity and Hinduism different sects of the same principle of an “uncaused first cause?”
