Existence Of God Concept Of God
1,619 wordsThe cosmological argument was first introduced by Aristotle and later refined in western Europe by the celebrated Christian theologian, Thomas Aquinas (d. 1274 CE).

The Existence Of God Approaches Criticisms
1,227 wordsThere are three major arguments that attempt to explain the existence of God. Firstly, it is important to establish a definition of God.
