The Moral Argument - Proof #5

The existence of an objective moral law is the seventh argument for the existence of God. Some immediately object to this line of reasoning as it is not grounded in science. But you cannot find out whether there is morality by science in the ordinary sense. Science works by experiments. It watches how things behave. Every scientific statement in the long run, however complicated it looks really means something like “I pointed the telescope to such and such a part of the sky at 2:20 A.M. on January 15th and saw so-and-so,” or, “I put some of this stuff in a pot and heated it to such-and-such a temperature and it did so-and-so.” Do not think I am saying anything against science: I am only saying what its job is. And the more scientific a man is, the more (I believe) he would agree with me that this is the job of science – and a very useful and necessary job it is too.

The Fine-Tuning Argument - Proof #3

There is mounting evidence that has many scientists believing that the universe is extremely designed to support human life here on earth. The extent of the universe’s fine-tuning makes the Anthropic (Greek for “Human”) Principle, coined by Cambridge physicist Brandon Carter, perhaps the most powerful argument for the existence  of God. The principle holds that all the seemingly arbitrary and unrelated constants in physics have one strange thing in common – these are precisely the values you need if you want to have a universe capable of producing life.

The Kalam Argument - Proof #2

When you get right down to it, there are only two explanations for how the universe exists: either 1) it has always existed and is therefore uncaused; or 2) it had a beginning and was caused by something separate from it.  Disregarding the overwhelming scientific evidence that confirms the universe had a beginning, and contrary to common sense that something cannot arise from nothing, most skeptics retreat to the ancient but unsubstantiated notion first proposed by Aristotle that the universe must be eternal.  Yet, if these skeptics were to consider arguments from outside the Western tradition, one would see that the medieval Islamic theologian al-Ghazali, a thousand years ago, rebutted Aristotle's eternity doctrine.
