The truth is‚ you don’t need a lot to live well — you just need the right mindset. Here’s what I’ve learned about living well on little: You need very little to be happy. Some simple plant food‚ modest shelter‚ a couple changes of clothes‚ a good book‚ a notebook‚ some meaningful work‚ and some loved ones. Want little‚ and you are not poor

to the atheist that God exists. There are many different forms of the ontological argument for the existence of God. The first being an argument postulated by Anselm in the Proslogian. The ontological argument is a priori meaning knowledge is independent of experience an analytical meaning from logic. The Ontological argument follows the analytic method of knowledge; in this instance‚ for example‚ this is to be found when Anselm reaches the conclusion of God by analysing God himself. The argument

The Problems with Descartes Deductive Proofs for God Descartes “Meditations of First Philosophy” put forward two arguments for the existence of God‚ both of which are a priori. These arguments are the Trademark argument and the Ontological argument. I shall be describing these arguments then demonstrating that they are unsatisfying in proving God’s existence. To do this I shall be discussing criticisms put forward in response to both the Trademark and Ontological arguments. These criticisms I shall

Thomas Aquinas devised five ways in which God is proven to be real; the first of which states that God is proven due to the motion of objects and bodies. Aquinas describes motion as “the reduction of something from potentiality to actuality”‚ giving the example that something like fire‚ which is actually hot‚ can change and move that which is cold but “potentially” hot (like a piece of wood)‚ but that it itself cannot be “potentially” hot. This argument relies on three basic claims: First‚ he claims

2014 Topic 3: The Certainty that God Is After reading the two paragraphs written by scholars I have come to three different conclusions. The author of the first argument claims that God does in fact exist and he is also infinite. The author of the second argument claims that humans are not capable of comprehending the idea of infinite‚ therefore we cannot argue that God is infinite or that he exists at all. Finally‚ Descartes claims that by The Method of Doubt‚ God is the one idea that cannot be doubted

of the Design Argument for the existence of God The design argument explicates many fundamental ideas in order to achieve evidence for the existence of God; its ideas are concluded by scholars such as Aquinas (analogy of the archer)‚ Paley (analogy of the watch) and Tennant (anthropic principle). They use analogies and principles to draw arguments to their conclusions to the existence of God. The argument is teleological; it aims to prove that everything that God has designed has an end and

to prove the existence of God through the idea of there being an uncaused first cause (God) to the creation of the universe. Christina philosopher Saint Thomas Aquinas is known for arguing in this manner in which he wrote‚ “The Five Ways”. From then on‚ the Cosmological Argument has become one of the most controversial and convincing arguments as to the existence of God. In what follows‚ I will argue that “The Five Ways” Aquinas’ brings up is not enough to prove the existence of God. However‚ I will
