The First Cause Argument (Cosmological Argument) - St Thomas Aquinas suggested that everything has a cause, and the first cause of the Universe is God. The Argument says, "It’s impossible to traverse an infinite series. The past therefore cannot be infinite. The first cause must be uncreated, eternal. The first cause must be God."
The Design Argument (Teleological Argument) - William Paley thought that the Universe was like a watch; with perfect cogs and screws functioning to their maximum. The Universe is too perfect for it to be in existence by chance. It must have been created by a God.
Argument from miracles - According to religious people, miracles DO occur, and only God is capable of breaking the laws of nature, as He is transcendent (not imminent) , He is outside of His creation.
Argument from Religious Experiences - Some people believe that they have had a religious experience, which only God could cause (such as answered prayers, miracle etc.), therefore God exists.
Argument from Morality - According to religious people, God is our source of morality; without Him, we would have no conscience. Therefore, since we have a sense of morality, God must exist.
