EvaluationOverall I think that the cosmological does prove the existence of God because if everything has to have a cause, then what could have caused the universe instead of an infinite, omnipotent being? However the weaknesses in this argument are that if everything has a cause, then God must have been caused as well, so he could not have been the first cause and the only 'uncaused causer'. On the other Christians would say that God is infinite, so he has no beginning and no end.On the contrary, some people would say that the cosmological argument disproves the existence of God because if everything has a cause then, something cannot come out of nothing, so God cannot have come out of nothing (ex nihilo). |
