Rational Defense Of Proof Of God Through Teleology
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. From the teleological perspective, nature is a representation of God; therefore, God must intrinsically exist as He, too, is a product of His own creation. David Hume was one of many philosophers who fully supported this argument in support of God's existence, contending that the external world is the ruling force behind the presence of all beings.

Three Arguments Regarding the Existence of God
[ send me this paper ]
This 9 page report discusses three specific
arguments for the existence of God -- cosmological, ontological, and argument from design. It is
more than fair to suggest that since the beginning of time, humanity has argued that God does or
does not exist. Having established that God exists, the argument then evolves into how God
exists and in what frame of reference and how those varying forms of referencing impact modern
thinking and religion. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
