The Kalam Cosmological Argument supports step 8: the cause of the universe must be timeless, spaceless, immaterial, enormously powerful, personal, and possessing libertarian freedom — matching the biblical God.

Kalam: (1) Whatever begins to exist has a cause. (2) The universe began to exist. (3) Therefore the universe has a cause. This cause must be: timeless (caused time, so existed without it), eternal (no beginning, as beginnings require time), spaceless and immaterial (caused space, so existed without it), enormously powerful (created everything from nothing), and possessing libertarian freedom (nothing external caused it to act — sourcehood freedom). Since only persons can possess libertarian freedom, the cause is personal — meaning relationship with humans is at least possible. The kalam shows an immaterial free-thinking "mega mind" behind the universe; the Free Thinking Argument shows immaterial free-thinking "many minds" within it. "Are we in the image or likeness of the ultimate mega mind behind the universe?"
