Existence of God

believing that it is a creator has been the most complex understanding that been argued every sense the existences of mankind. The objective of religion (overall) is to being certainty in an uncertain world and to give people a piece of mine about the challenges that they may face during their journey in this world. Therefore, for argument sake I will use the Argument from Desire to prove the existence of God. Argument from Desire states that “Every natural, innate desire in us corresponds to…

Member 1 and Member 2 exchange religion-based jokes, i.e., about the “presence of Jesus.” Here, the “presence of God” indicates the sense the Catholics actually feels—the sense of God being always there in their daily lives, or the belief in the existence of God even though He is invisible to human eye. Therefore, in such a form of joking or kidding, the belief in the existence of God is exchanged and shared among the members in a lighter and more refreshing way, thereby reconfirming that they…

on the existence of God is most prudent option? Why? Pascal’s Wager can be briefly summed up as that there is no reason not to believe in God, because you stand to lose nothing by believing in Him. This rational way of thinking about the existence of God is quite interesting. It almost seems to suggest that there can be a half-belief in God. This wager suggests that you’re only interested in the benefits that come along with believing in God, and are just merely saying you believe in God. If…

Recognizing God’s existence has never been an easy task. From century to century, people continue to search for ways to find proof God does exist. In consulting with Foreman’s (2016) presentation, “Approaching the Question of God’s Existence” the use of proof to illustrate that God does exist is not a virtuous practice and the word “proof” should be avoided when wanting to claim God is real. He makes an effective point that there are some things in the world that have no complete explanation for…

in the existence of a monotheistic God could be rationally supported. A number of arguments for and against the existence of God emerged at this time, and while the philosophical debate on the existence of God is still in session, the initial dust has settled. At this point in time, it is abundantly clear that a the cosmological argument is untenable at both a metaphysical and empirical level, and that the various versions of the cosmological argument fail to support the existence of God. There…

COSMOLOGICAL ARGUMENT: MAKING THE BELIEF IN GOD RATIONAL TOPIC: Of the arguments for the existence of God (the cosmological [first cause] argument and the teleological [design] argument found in Hume, and the ontological argument of Anselm), which is the best in your view? What is the structure of the argument? What is a potential objection to the argument? Is there an adequate response to that objection? Is the argument sufficient to make belief in God rational? Why or why not? When…

I promptly responded, Suddenly I realized that all my pages and pages regarding the evils of Satan were virtually lacking of what ‘I really wanted to relate;’ by my words I realized my “true desire” transpired as being deliberately vague. This factual bombshell exploded within my being, along with the amazing issue of how unnerved I had become. Unlike the bold encounter I previously mentioned with my Aunt Lucy May regarding this subject, I found the experience of conversing with an unfamiliar…

In the first meditation, Descartes introduces his usage of the first person, he uses this as a rhetorical device so that the reader can identify with what he is claiming. The meditator comes to realize that he believes many things that are potentially false. He states that through a method of doubt he can rid himself of the false beliefs and build a new foundation based on certainty. If he has any uncertainty about a belief, then he will go after the foundation, instead of a superficial layer.…

Argument for God’s Existence. Though many people find Descartes Ontological Argument for God’s Existence to be an unpersuasive and weak argument, I find it is a very strong argument that provides a strong foundation and argument for God’s existence. In this paper I plan to elaborate upon Descartes fifth meditation and slightly over the first and third. After this I will then explain its strong points and weaknesses. I believe Descartes Ontological Argument for God’s Existence in Meditation five…
