This episode reviews 5 logical arguments that prove God’s existence. They come from the Summa Theologica of St Thomas Aquinas. Key points include:
• The Role of Philosophy in Faith:
Why logic and reason are essential for understanding theology and making sound arguments about God’s existence. The episode discusses how postmodernism has led to a “crisis of meaning” in Western culture.
• Five Proofs for God’s Existence:
1. Argument from Motion: Everything in motion was set in motion by something else, leading to the necessity of an “unmoved mover”—God.
2. Argument from Causation: Every effect has a cause, but there must be a first, uncaused cause—God.
3. Argument from Contingency: Contingent beings require a necessary being whose existence is essential—God.
4. Argument from Gradation: The existence of varying degrees of goodness, truth, and beauty points to a perfect source—God as “Being itself.”
5. Argument from Design: The order and intelligibility of the universe suggest intentional design and purpose, ultimately pointing to God.
• Philosophy’s Limits:
While philosophy can prove God’s existence and certain attributes, deeper knowledge comes from God’s self-revelation in scripture and tradition.
