All arguments for God explained in 10 minutes

Unless you grew up in a Baptist Sunday school, you probably think that if you believe in God you should be able to explain why, fortunately, Christians and other philosophers have been answering this question for more than 2,000 years. Evidentialism attempts to defend God by giving evidence of supernatural events, for example, many Christians think that the resurrection of Christ can be proven historically because there were many eyewitnesses who died for their faith and, in general, people do not die for something they know which is not true, sometimes people give evidence of supernatural things like demonic possessions where people start speaking in languages ​​they don't know or near death experiences where people see things outside of their body that they shouldn't have been able to see.

Moral argument is basically objective morality is only real if God is real, but objective morality is real, therefore God is real. The question is whether cannibalism is good or bad. I think it's good. I think it's bad. I think it's good. I think it's bad. Which of them is correct now? I assume you agree with this. one if not please stay away from me but how do you know he's actually right? How do you know these aren't just different opinions? Our little friend here can only be objectively right if there is a supreme authority that says cannibalism is bad and that supreme authority is what we would call God the cosmological argument is basically that something must have caused everything else everything that happens has a cause and that has a cause and that has a cause so where is this going?

This goes on forever. It is not possible at some point there has to be a first cause of everything else there has to be an unmoved mover a causer without a cause a changer without changes it has to be Eternal because if it ever begins or ceases to exist that is change and it cannot be done which needs to be outside the universe because everything in the universe is caused, it also needs to be all-powerful because if it can't move but can move anything else, that means it is all-powerful and this is what we would call God.

I don't understand it well, let's make it even more difficult then everything is a mixture of act which means what it is and power which means what it could be, for example, a baby is actually alive and could be an adult, an apple is actually red and has the power to be eaten, so if you eat an apple you are updating its power to be eaten, but you are also a mixture of act and power, for example, you have the power to be strong, but you are not strong every time something changes you, it is updating. a power in you every time a change occurs you have one thing actualizing another but you cannot go back forever So eventually you need to return to a non-actualized actualizer which we call God God is the being that is pure act, which means that he is all he could possibly be is that this means he must be Eternal because if he is not Eternal that means he has the potential to not exist but there is no potential in God so that means God must always exist too if God is all that could be, he is also all-powerful because he cannot change and that means that nothing else could do anything to God.

This argument is the most complicated. It originates from Aristotle and is also used by Thomas Aquinas in Sum contract tiles. Pascal's wager is much simpler and is more of a thought experiment than an argument let's say you are an atheist and atheism turns out to be correct, nothing happens after you die, so you don't really gain or lose anything, it is something neutral for you, but let's say you're an atheist and it turns out you're wrong and God is real then it could be very bad for you now let's say you believe in God and it turns out atheism is right then you still don't gain or lose anything it's just neutral but if you believe in and God is real, then you could win it all, so between these two possibilities, which one do you want to bet on this one gives you a much better chance, so it is better for you to believe in God?

The theological argument says that things in the universe seem to have a purpose, that means that the universe must have had a designer, if you found a machine lying around you would assume that someone designed the machine, so the theological argument tries to argue that the Universe works like a machine, so someone must have designed the universe, things in nature like the human cell or the ecosystem of the world are very complex and work like a machine. Now Darwinian evolution can explain why this is the case, but there are also things that Darwinian evolution cannot explain, like the four constants of the universe, there are physical constants like the gravitational constant and the charge of the electron, the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force, which are perfectly tuned in such a way that if they were even a little bit different, the entire universe would immediately collapse in on itself.

The ontological argument says that God exists because of the way he is brother, no, seriously, God is defined as that which nothing greater can be conceived, that means that God must be all-powerful because being all-powerful is greater than having a limited power. God must be omniscient because being all-powerful is greater than having limited knowledge. God. must be completely good because being completely good is greater than having defects and God must exist because existing is greater than not existing simply because we can think of the greatest possible being does not mean that it really exists well actually exists because actually existing is more than just existing in the mind, that's fine, but you could use that to argue for the existence of the largest possible pizza, well, actually no, you can't because the definition of pizza implies limitations such as a limited size and that it can be break if you have a pizza that was indestructible Eternal all powerful and infinitely large it would no longer be a pizza it would be just God basically if your pizza becomes infinitely large it will become God there is also the argument from personal experience it may sound silly but everyone sees the world through the lens of their own personal experience, many people are convinced that God exists because of supernatural events they have seen or because of answered prayers or simply coincidences in their lives, so this is very good for convincing yourself that God exists but is not very good at convincing other people the transcendental argument basically says that without God nothing can make sense there are many things we assume but cannot prove we assume that logic works we assume there is coherence in the natural world to assume that truth exists, but we can't prove any of these things scientifically because these are the basic assumptions we must make to even do science.

All of these things make sense if we presuppose a worldview in which God exists because then we can say all of these things. Other things are based on the mind of God, but if God does not exist, then we have no justification for the things we assume and everything just collapses. There is the mind or Consciousness argument that says that Consciousness cannot be

explained

naturally in general. The atheistic explanation. of Consciousness is that our brain is simply a very advanced biological machine, but unlike our mind, machines can be reduced to their parts, now our brain can be reduced to its brain cells, but that is not the same as experience of Consciousness, for example, you can find a part of our brain that sees the color yellow, but that is not the same as the experience of seeing the color yellow, you cannot study Consciousness scientifically because one can only observe one's own Consciousness.

For example, there is no way to know if we all see the same colors. know maybe yellow looks like this to me, for all you know you could be the only person that exists, a single atom is not conscious, two atoms are not conscious, a group of atoms are not conscious, so even if you have a complex system, it is still just a complex arrangement of atoms that are not conscious, so where does consciousness come from? So this is not exactly an argument for God, but an argument for the human soul because it shows that something immaterial is needed to explain consciousness.

Then there is the argument from mathematics that there is an infinite reality higher than our physical universe, so basic mathematics is not that special, for example the number five corresponds to five apples and 5 * 3 corresponds to three groups of five apples, but the further you get into advanced mathematics, the more mathematics begins to disconnect from our world but still works, for example. There are real numbers which are numbers that correspond to real things, but there are also imaginary numbers that are just as real mathematically but do not correspond to the real world and that is why they are not called real numbers but they still exist mathematically although they do not exist in the real world. .

Let's look at the five most important numbers in mathematics. One is obviously important because it is the basis of all real numbers. Zero is very important because it is necessary. to do Algebra I is very important because it is the basis of all imaginary numbers and it is very important to do exponential functions and Pi is necessary to do mathematics with circles. Now all of these numbers are seemingly unrelated to each other, but they fit wonderfully into this equation. Called the Oiler identity, it was discovered by Oiler, one of the greatest mathematicians in history, and he saw this as proof that mathematics was designed by God.

Furthermore, Oiler was a devout Calvinist. Another evidence that mathematics has a designer is the mandal set BR which is generated by a very simple equation in the complex plane but produces infinite details, you can keep approaching this shape and it will continue to generate more and more complexity even though no one designed This, the mandal set BR is infinite and not found anywhere in our universe, so that means that anything created must also be infinite and not of our universe, so those are the common

arguments

for God and By the way, this video was not intended to make any of these

arguments

, it would take a much longer video to make any of these. arguments Justice, it's just to give you an overview of these arguments so you can look into them further if you want and now it's time for the best argument of all, which is: believe me, brother.
