Theology Terms Tuesday – Arguments for God’s Existence Part II

theology_terms

Sorry readers I can’t believe I forgot about this yesterday. As you know we are going through some classic arguments for God’s existence. So here is this weeks:

Kalam cosmological argument

The aim of this argument is to show that the universe had a beginning in the finite past. The argument battles against the existence of an infinite, temporal regress of past events which implies a universe that has infinitely existed. This argument implies the existence of a First Cause.

The form of the argument is:

  1. Whatever begins to exist has a cause.
  2. The universe began to exist.
  3. Therefore, the universe has a cause.
  1. No trackbacks yet.
