Philosophical Arguments for the Existence of God

While I was studying Philosophy and Religion at the University of London, one of the modules I took focused on arguments for the existence of God. As interesting as they are, many of these arguments are quite long-winded and complicated.

I was recently pleased, then, to stumble upon an animated video series which looks at some of these arguments in simple, clear, and easily digestible form. If you’re interested in philosophy and/or theology, and in particular arguments for the existence of God, you might find these videos helpful.

The videos are produced by Reasonable Faith, which is the apologetics ministry of Dr William Lane Craig.

The Kalam Cosmological Argument

The Moral Argument

Leibniz’ Contingency Argument

The Fine-Tuning of the Universe

The Ontological Argument

Suffering and Evil: The Logical Problem

There’s a lot in these videos that I don’t agree with, but I think that they are helpful in that they present certain perspectives that are interesting and worth considering.

For my own arguments for the existence of God, check out my book The Philosophy of a Mad Man (to find out how you can win a free copy read this).

What do you believe is the most convincing argument for the existence of God? Let me know in the comments!
