Explain Miller's analogy of getting up early to go fishing. What should it show? The dialogue about God, evil and the existence of God was between Gretchen Weirob, Sam Miller and Gretchen Weinrob. At first, Weirob was sick and Miller came to visit him and asked Weirob to pray with him for God to cure her, but Weirob was not a believer and she refused to do so. Miller tried to convince Weirob that God exists and that she should pray. Weirob tried to convince Miller that God doesn't exist by asking him if God exists and is omniscient and omnipotent, why did he let her get sick from the beginning? and why he hasn't let go of the illness she suffers from. On the other hand, Miller gave her the example of a fisherman who gets up early on a cool day and goes fishing. After that, he catches some fish and goes home to enjoy the sweet fish he caught. The point of telling her that example is to tell her that if there were no difficulties and barriers, there would be a difference in life. For example, the fisherman had to get up early and wait long hours to catch fish, but for him it was a good time and he had to enjoy the taste of the good fish he had caught. If he didn't get up early and get fresh fish, he wouldn't have a wonderful, busy day and instead it would be like every simple day in every person's life. Furthermore, if everything were in a person's life, the person would not appreciate the thing when he gets it as if he got it by himself and with hard work. For example, rich children would not appreciate an expensive new toy that their parents give them in the same way as poor children who would be happy if they simply received a simple cheap toy that they do not have. Reconstruct and evaluate Aq... ... middle of paper ...... as if it were an egg or a child, you should conclude that it is something from which they existed. To conclude, I think that Aquinas's five arguments that God is the prime mover of everything, that he is the first cause of everything, that he is the necessary being, that he is the greatest being and no one is better than him and finally that he is the smartest are all true because each of them had their own strong support. I realized that Aquinas' Arguments were valid after reading them more carefully and understanding the deeper meanings they contained. If I didn't see them so closely, I wouldn't believe in God. Furthermore, I concluded that God is indeed the necessary being because if he were a contingent being there would be nothing in this moment. Therefore, God exists by himself and is the cause of the existence of everything else.
