Can scientific evidence prove there is a personal concerned‚ God outside the universe? Lee Strobel very early in his teenage years decided that based on the evolutionary thought of Darwin and later others prominent theology‚ there could not be a God who loved humans personally and created a universe by design. He went on to college where he became a sincere atheist. However he could not remain content there for long because as he admits he was always searching for answers as his career in journalism

Blackburn is wrong for claiming that the existence of evil calls for a God that isn’t all-good‚ all-knowing‚ and all-powerful. What brought me to this conclusion is his inability to look at things from different perspectives which can cloud or mislead judgement. Blackburn’s main argument is that we evidently face evil in our world so clinging onto the idea of our God being perfect becomes more and more difficult the more you look into it. To support this argument‚ he brings up an example of a management

The Existence of God For centuries‚ the idea of God has been a part of man’s history. Past and present‚ there has always been a different integration consisting of the believers and the non-believers of God. The group of those who have "faith" in God tend to be related to one religion or another. On the other hand‚ the skeptics find the existence of God somewhat puzzling and try to seek the answers through scientific methods. Even as of today with all the modern technologies and the development

Hume’s arguments against the existence of God are not logical or valid for three reasons: the reality and complexity of the universe is evidence for the existence of God; the nature of a miracle is that it interrupts the closed‚ natural world; and the fact of free will must allow for the existence of a choice that is in opposition to God‚ or what we call

Ramsey believed that Christians are in touché with God through the means of conjecturing. Conjectures are propositions that are not proven. But‚ in the side of the Christians they didn’t call this as conjecturing rather they call it Faith. If Paul Ramsey believed to what Nietzsche said‚ then both of them are applicable to what they truly believe. Simply because what they trying to prove are mere propositions that are not proven.

nature is even more intricate. With this in mind‚ nature must have a designer because everything regarding nature is complex and it is very unlikely to be created without contrivance. Convincingly‚ Paley came up with the notion that there must be a God or transcendent being that created the universe‚ as well as all of the nature within it due to the fact that it seems implausible for something so complex to have been created with no thought or planning. In chapter eight‚ Pascal writes‚ “…for nothing

Throughout the Life of Pi‚ Martel consistently argues for the existence of God. Pi Patel demonstrates his love and belief in God through interest in religion‚ prayer‚ and his epic survival. Pi Patel was raised Hindu‚ but as his interest in religion grew‚ his mind opened to the thought of adding beliefs into his life. “I was fourteen years old – and a well-content Hindu on a holiday – when I met Jesus Christ.” P.50. After a year of embracing Christianity‚ Pi’s passion continued to seek new

traditional proofs for God’s existence persuasive‚ and I will go over each argument one at a time to explain why I do not find them persuasive‚ starting with Anselm’s ontological argument‚ then Aquinas’ cosmological argument‚ and finally Paley’s teleological argument. First‚ Anselm’s ontological argument is not persuasive because the argument can be used to prove things that do not exist. The faulty logic is shown in Gaunilo’s Lost Island Objection because instead of putting God as the thing to prove‚

Explain Aquinas’ Cosmological Argument Thomas Aquinas developed five ways to prove Gods existence. The first three are key to the Cosmological argument. These are from motion‚ causation‚ and contingency. He presented his work on these in the Summa Theologica‚ where he accepts that it may be impossible to prove the God of Classical theism caused the universe to exist‚ but believes that what God does proves Gods existence. The first way is from motion‚ Aquinas emphasises that motion means changes

divine Lord if we had not seen him yet even once? When we have said that we only believe what we can see… If you think about the quote made by man‚ “To see is to believe.” And how men believe in God‚ they’re two contradicting thoughts. We don’t see god‚ therefore why should we believe in him? What caused God to live from generations to generations when we can’t even see him‚ has anyone seen him besides the prophets? We know that we have friends‚ neighbors‚ teachers‚ parents‚ siblings‚ and other
