Cosmological argument

When it comes to discussing the cosmological argument, I question myself why are most arguments that are for defending a higher being, in a monotheism perspective: the belief of one God. I argue that yes there is an existence of a higher being, but I also argue that there is more than one God; one God for each universe. I believe that there is a God for each universe, because there is more than one universe, therefore I argue towards the multiverse argument with a concentration of polytheism. When

A cosmological argument is defined as “an argument for the existence of God which claims that all things in nature depend on something else for their existence (i.e. are contingent), and that the whole cosmos must therefore itself depend on a being which exists independently or necessarily.” (Davies, 1982)This argument can be first traced back to Plato and Aristotle around 400BC – 300BC. (Cornman, Lehrer, & Pappas, 1992)Thomas Aquinas adapted the argument of Aristotle to form one of the most influential

Aquinas was a Catholic priest who tried to prove the existence of God using his five cosmological arguments. I disagree with the validity of these arguments. The arguments presented by Aquinas are questionable and most certainly do not prove the existence of the Christian God. Aquinas states that God’s existence can be proved in five ways. The first way he tries to prove God is proof by motion. He states that motion is a reduction of something from potentiality to actuality. It is impossible for

on the Kalam Cosmological argument, People who don’t believe God exists think that the world and everything in it is just here and there is no cause and effect. If something exists than there is a cause because the world doesn’t just come out of nowhere. There must be a reason why things are the way they are. People create things in the world like social artifacts or etc. God created people to make the world what it is based on new intentions or etc. In the Ontological argument it states that

In order to be able to understand what each of views about the Kalaam Cosmological are argument are, one needs to first understand the basic version of the Kalaam Cosmological Argument. The Kalaam Cosmological Argument is an argument for the existence of god, not necessarily the Christian view of god, but the existence of a higher being, a creator of the universe. The simplified version of The Kalaam Cosmological Argument is as follows: everything has a cause of existence, the universe exists, and

The cosmological argument sets out to prove that the universe could only have been created by God and that therefore he exists. In this regard, I believe that it fails and is not successful. The argument is: Everything that exists has a cause. The universe must have a cause. That cause is God. There are problems with all premises of this argument and I will use the works of Hume, amongst others to attack the cosmological argument. Whilst the argument is strong and has strong arguments put forward

factors that stand out from the rest. The cosmological argument explains that the world had to start somewhere based on cause and effect (Lewis Sperry Chafer) and the empirical evidence of the fulfillment of prophecy (p. 4) timeline the Septuagint and Dead Sea scrolls provide, there should be little doubt in validity of the authentic writings in the Bible. First, from the Bibliology article, Lewis Sperry Chafer (1957) explained, “The cosmological argument depends upon the validity of three contributing

In the Cosmological argument, we are presented with a very sound argument. In this argument, Aquinas is answering the question of why there has to be a first cause and why the first cause is God. He tells us that everything that exist in this universe needs an explanation for why it exist. Secondly, Aquinas tells us that all the objects that exist now were caused to exist by other objects before them and this cycle goes on. Thirdly, he tells us the universe couldn’t possibly be something that goes

The cosmological argument for the existence of god According to St. John 8:31-32 said, “If you remain in my word, you will truly be my disciples, and you will know the truth and the truth shall set you free”. This sentence is come from the bible, but I am not a christian, so I do not really understand what this means. I guess it was talking about if people believe in god, and trust his words, and in the end the will get the freedom. For many of christians, they believes in god, but many of

Theories have arisen from many different philosophers trying to explain the existence of God; the Cosmological Argument is one such theory. The Cosmological Argument has been changed and reviewed for years; however, the focus has always stayed the same. The universe is a prime example that there is a God. A simple Cosmological argument states that: Everything that exists has a cause of its existence. The universe exists. Therefore, The universe has a cause of its existence. If the universe has
