William Lane Craig是美国当代著名基督教apologist 他拥有哲学与神学双博士学位
他主持的网站: http://www.reasonablefaith.org/
Wikipedia的主题页: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Lane_Craig
他的网站主旨是"Defending Biblical Christianity" 所以应该无倾向任何派别(?)
(更正: 感谢kalestorm提示 后来发现Craig自述不太满意天主教对Justification的见解)
他在网站上公布了5个影片各介绍1个应该相信神存在的论证
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3gdeV4Rk9EfL-NyraEGXXwSjDNeMaRoX
根据影片内容并根据在ReasonableFaith.org的google搜寻结果
这5个论证可以概述如下
(但是这可能有断章取义之嫌 Craig应该已经在网络发表更详尽的解释了)
Cosmological Argument
1. Whatever begins to exist has a cause.
2. The universe began to exist.
3. Therefore, the universe has a cause
Moral Argument
1. If God does not exist, objective moral values do not exist.
2. Objective moral values do exist.
3. Therefore, God exists.
Contingency Argument
1. Everything that exists has an explanation of its existence, either in the
necessity of its nature, or in an external cause.
2. If the universe has an explanation of its existence, that explanation is
God.
3. The universe exists.
4. Therefore, the universe has an explanation of its existence.
5. Therefore, the explanation of the universe’s existence is God.
Fine-Tuning Argument
1. The fine-tuning of the universe is due to either law, chance, or design.
2. The fine-tuning is not due to law or chance.
3. Therefore, the fine-tuning is due to design.
Ontological Argument
1. It is possible that a Maximally Great Being exists.
2. If it is possible that a Maximally Great Being exists, then a Maximally
Great Being exists in some possible world.
3. If a Maximally Great Being exists in some possible world, then it exists
in every possible world.
4. If a Maximally Great Being exists in every possible world, then it exists
in the actual world.
5. If a Maximally Great Being exists in the actual world, then a Maximally
Great Being exists.
6. Therefore, a Maximally Great Being exists.
我还在消化这些论证 不过对批判思考不太敏锐的我来说目前它们看来都有道理
所以欢迎大家在板上提出质疑 Craig的网站也有发问的管道
接着我还要读一下Problem of Evil
看看这主题是否能提供应该相信神不存在的论证
