7. Arguments for the Existence of God These types of argument are often called ‘Teleological’ arguments. They basically works like this : 1.To design something takes intelligence and thought. 2.The universe appears to have been designed. 3.Therefore, a being with intelligence and thought must have designed the universe. 4.Only God could design something as complex as the universe. 5.Therefore, God must exist.

10. Plato again! Just a bit older this time A book written in his later life called ‘Timaeus’ refers to a Demi-urge. Demi-urge translates literally as public worker. Plato believed in a world that was pre-existent (matter already existed before it was formed into the universe) The Demi-urge does not create the world ex nihilo but rather acts as a craftsman ordering the material world out of chaos. It makes logical sense as if there was not a designer there would still be chaos. The Demiurge wanted to reproduce in the material world the perfect order of the Forms, but the world as crafted turned out not to be perfect because matter is imperfect.

11. Aristotle His theory can be found in his book metaphysics Based upon his observation of the world around him and the stars above him The only possible explanation for all the complexity and beauty that the world contains was a divine intelligence This was a first unmoved mover responsible for the source of all existing order This god possesses intelligence, goodness, eternity yet is incorporeal
