Arguments for God

Cosmological

Core Idea: Everything that exists has a cause, and there must be an uncaused first cause (the "Prime Mover" or First Cause) to initiate the chain of causation. This first cause is God.

Resource one - cosmological argument resource


Teleological

Core Idea: The universe and its inhabitants are incredibly complex and show intricate design, suggesting an intelligent designer, which is God. This is also known as the fine tuning argument.

Resource two - teleological argument resource


Ontological

Core Idea: This argument defines God as the greatest conceivable being. Since existence is a necessary attribute of the greatest conceivable being, God must exist conceptually and therefore actually.

Resource three - ontological argument resource


Moral

Core Idea: The existence of universal, objective moral laws or values suggests a divine source for these values. Without God, these values would be arbitrary or subjective. Lots of objections here include the "if God, why evil" line of reasoning.

Resource four - moral argument resource
