The Cosmological Argument: Discrediting The Existence Of God

The cosmological argument, in it’s simplest terms, can be broken up into a few understood points that make it what some to believe the answer to God’s existence. The same form of argument that the cosmological argument possesses can actually be applied to discrediting the existence of God. The origin of time and the relationship between an infinite set of causes and effects and if it has a creator both work together in forming good points against the credibility of the cosmological argument made for the existence of God. There are two main assertions made by the argument in favor of God’s existence. The first, when laid out in simpler terms, is as follows; everything that exists must have a first cause so that means that if the universe began to exist, it must have a first cause. The second point made is directed towards someone who may think that the first point cant be right if the universe is just a set of causes and effects with no beginning. It states that an actual set of events that is infinite cannot exist and a series of causes and effects is a set of infinite events, so a series of event with no beginning cannot exists. My defense upon trying to discredit this argument makes a few counter examples that I think beg question. It is just as valid believing that the universe is just a set of infinite series of events …show more content…
