Which god?[edit]

The first sentence says that the book discusses "modern cosmogony and its implications for the debate about the existence of God". I haven't read the book but does it simply focus on God (as in the god of Abraham and Moses), does it apply to any creator god(s)/goddess(es) or to any deity at all?

WP: Weight[edit]

This article devotes 3 early paragraphs to blogposts from from Sean Carroll and John Horgan (misattributing Horgan's SciAm blog to Scientific American and eking out a third paragraph by quoting Horgan's main source at length.]] I think that published reviews from Nature and New Scientist deserve higher placement and more lenght than polemics by bloggers.HouseOfChange (talk) 04:44, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@HouseOfChange: I also found that this article has weight issues and relies too much on unreliable sources like blogs. It's been on my TODO list a while; I'll try to improve it as time allows. Thanks, —Paleo Neonate – 04:13, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@HouseOfChange: I have pruned a few and have added another, please review when you can. There remains some philosophical criticism that has little to do with physics, but they appear to be from notable people and in popular magazine articles.

Arguments contradicting the book[edit]

I would like to add an external reference (link) to this page. It is a video contradicting the Krauss book. Are there any objections? Link is A Universe from Nothing - YouTube titled a Universe from nothing. It provides perspective on the definition of nothing. 22:03, 5 April 2022 (UTC)22:03, 5 April 2022 (UTC)22:03, 5 April 2022 (UTC)~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jimjohnson2222 (talk • contribs)
