Design Argument--Does God exist? I found William Paley’s design argument in The Watch and the Watch-Maker the most compelling and thought provoking because I thought he had an interesting point symbolizing the watch as the universe and the watch-maker as the universe-maker or God. Paley doesn’t give a scientific explanation‚ but instead bases his work on observation and logical thinking unlike Robin Collins’s argument in his work‚ A Scientific Argument for the Existence of God‚ which is supported

Turner‚ Travis 2 October 2007 Barron Does God Exist? Throughout history there has always been an impulse to figure out the truth. When one matter is stated to be true‚ there is always something to provoke a question concerning that truth. Truths including: The Earth being flat‚ the planets and the stars revolving around the Earth‚ even where babies come from. All this was at one point given as fact and not truly questioned. Any ideas supported by the church was just written down and left

word refers to a being. That God really exists has remained a quest for man and how man views and accepts God’s existence depends on his intellectual thinking and critical temperaments. Many people‚ even long-time believers‚ want proof of God’s existence. But there is no way to "prove" God’s existence so that everyone is convinced. It is probably better to talk in terms of evidence‚ rather than proof. The evidence gives us confidence that God exists and is the sort of being the Bible describes

Although we may have a strong faith and believe firmly that God exists‚ we should still look to strengthen our knowledge and understanding of our faith. Our faith is all supported and based on God. That is why it would make sense to start by examining God‚ and proof He exists. There are many theories to prove God’s existence‚ one of the most famous by St. Thomas Aquinas and his five proofs. These proofs are one of the

Why we can’t face god? Why angels exist? The Creator Himself is so powerful and glorious that He cannot be approached in person by human beings. He alone "hath immortality‚ dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto: whom no man hath seen‚ nor can see (1 Timothy 6:16).

However‚ I do not agree with them. I believe that karma does not exist because a lot of horrendous things happen to people who have lived a good life. Also‚ if karma were real‚ people would be affected that did not do anything bad. One of the reasons I do not believe in karma is because even though people are relatively
