"Is the Existence of Evil incompatible with the existence of God?" "Without darkness there can be no light (Shestov)." This quote says a lot about our world as we know it. To truly know something we must also know it’s opposite. We would not know silent if there was not sound. There would be no young if we did not know old.

cosmological argument for the existence of God (25 marks) Thomas Aquinas famously formulated his version of the cosmological or "first cause" argument. According to this argument‚ the things which we see around us now are the products of a series of previous causes. But that series cannot go back in time forever. Thus there must be some first cause which was not itself caused by anything else. And that first uncaused cause is God. A lot of the argument is based on Aristotelian views‚ of that there

To expand my basis of knowledge on this subject I consulted Matthew Esters‚ who recently
