Theism

Craig in his Kalam argument tries to address this problem using a priori considerations, but he fails to deduce the attributes of theism in his analysis of the first cause of the universe.This objection, however, does not show that the Kalam Cosmological Argument can play no significant role in support of traditional theism. There might be other arguments when used in conjunction with Kalam Argument that may prove the existence of the theistic of God. However, the argument by…

wouldn’t be a need for many gods. Moreover, using this argument, our universe could have been an initial test of sorts that failed and so God decided to leave it be and create another, better one. This notion betrays the idea of the God of classical theism and the idea that humans are the most important beings ever created. Paley’s entire argument is based on believing that like effects mean there has to be like causes. If we reject that idea, the very basis of Paley’s argument fails and so the…

There Is No God by Thomas B. Warren, the reader is introduced to an atheist argument that has been widely used for numerous years and it’s logical implications. In addition to the impressive atheist argument of evil, the author makes his case for theism and why the idea of God is not illogical because of the great amounts of evil in the world. This is done by means of strict logical fashion, which is the use of propositions that come to a conclusion that must be logically sound. In the first…

this category are indeed representations of God, but similarly, so are people and animals and everything else that exist. And thus once again, the king cannot be perceived as more divine than anyone else. Therefore, the only remaining category in Theism that is left to examine is the “Separate Entities”: one entity is God and the second is the world that we live in. Trying to fit a king into this category, we could place him both within the entity of God, and within the entity of the world.…

Truth and Reality A pantheist’s truth and reality go together. A pantheist’s reality revolves around monism, which means all is one. Since pantheists are very into this concept,…

When referencing Augustine and St Thomas Aquinas, Vanhoozer states the doctrine of divine…
