St. Thomas‚ in his Summa Theologica‚ sets forth five separate proofs for the existence of God‚ Unlike St. Anselm’s proof‚ which deals with pure concepts‚ St. Thomas’ proofs rely on the world of our experience-what we can see around us. In these proofs we can easily see the influence of Aristotle and his doctrine of the Four Causes.  l) The Proof from Motion. We observe motion all around us. Whatever is in motion now

    The Teleological Argument for God There are many theories about how the universe‚ earth‚ and humans came into existence. Some aim to prove the existence of God‚ that a large explosion created all life‚ or even that everything has just always existed. One of these theories works to answer questions about creation and prove the existence of the Christian God; this theory is known as the Teleological argument. To expand my basis of knowledge on this subject I consulted Matthew Esters‚ who recently

    I chose this article from http://io9.com/the-7-most-intriguing-philosophical-arguments-for-the-e-1507393670 (I copied it over to Word because the ads and pop-ups and pictures would have made for a difficult read as well as a lengthy print).
