different arguments to validate his belief that God did indeed exist. Those arguments are still used today in the debate of God’s existence. The first argument Aquinas created is the “Argument from motion.” This argument was based on the fact that objects in motion had to be set in motion by a different source.

The teleological argument is a posteriori and like the cosmological argument‚ attempts to prove the existence of God.

wrote the five cosmological arguments that support the existence of God. A cosmological argument is an argument that supports the existence of God and that everything that exists was caused by something else.
