Topic > An Argument for the Existence of God - 948

Everyone who has ever lived has believed in at least one thing. It could be that the sun rises in the east or something like believing hard enough will allow a person to pass through any solid wall as if they weren't even there. One of these beliefs is based on fact, while the other is based on illusion. The laws of nature will not allow a person to simply walk through a solid wall. In other words, some beliefs are rational and some are not. Some believe that believing in the existence of God is not rational; however, I believe that belief in the existence of a greater being called God can be a rational belief. For something to be rational it must be based on facts or logical reasoning rather than emotions or feelings. Believing in the existence of God because it makes you feel better about what you do in your life is not rational because it is based on feelings, but believing in the existence of God can be rational because the belief can be supported by facts and logic. reasoning as follows. The world is a dynamic, ordered system of many different and changing elements. Their natural properties are ordered to interact with each other in stable and reciprocal relationships that we define as physical laws. For example, all particles with mass are ordered to move towards all others according to the law of gravity. Another simple example is that hydrogen atoms are ordered to combine with an oxygen atom in the ratio of 2:1, thus implying that each oxygen atom is ordered to combine with hydrogen atoms in the ratio of 1:2 (a mutual relationship). In such a dynamic and mutually dependent system, the nature of each part is defined by its relationship with the others, and therefore requires the others for its ability to act. Modern science... middle of paper... acquires enough knowledge to create and order everything in our universe. The question of whether a rational belief that God exists or does not exist is a question that has been around for a long time. If the rational belief in the existence or non-existence of God were not meaningful to us, then I would not spend so much time debating whether or not it is rational to believe in the existence of God. There are many reasons why the existence or non-existence God's non-existence is significant. Belief or disbelief in God affects our daily lives. People are influenced by most beliefs. If it were definitively proven that God exists, perhaps the world would be a better place because people would want to live a good life to please God. If it were definitively proven that God does not exist, there wouldn't be so much hatred or persecution for people who don't believe in God. That's why it's a significant issue.
