Design arguments are arguments declaring that God exists by comparing the natural world with human creations. One of the most famous design arguments was written by William Paley. Paley compared the natural world to that of a watch. He said that a watch could in no way form naturally as it was far too complex. This is the basis for all design arguments; our world and everything in it is too complex to be created so randomly and without help. This argument is not about a religious God or Heaven or

Examine the key ideas of the cosmological argument. The cosmological argument seeks to prove the existence of God on the basis that the universe has not always been in existence and so for it to be created‚ an external cause was necessary; this outside agent is viewed as God.

It is a non-propositional argument so it cannot be proven but can be argued by offering
