The Cosmological argument is a philosophical argument for the existence of God. It is explained that everything has a reason‚ is the first reason‚ the first reason is of no significance. The cosmological view tries to prove the existence of God by observing the universe. Scientists believe that the universe must have a beginning‚ it needs something to give it existence.
