Teleological Argument That The Intelligent Design Exist

194 Words1 Page

According to the Teleological argument the universe resembles a machine due to it 's intelligent design. Being that the universe even exists I believe shows the intelligent design. If you look towards the eco-systems they run on checks and balances the same as any software. When you remove a section it tends to collapse or eventually will collapse. In addition, just as a machine the universe changes and will go through phases in design. For example, none of the beings that existed originally on our planet still exist, they changed and adapted. What is interesting is who is considered the designer of said machine. Perhaps the universe is the designer and all things that exist are the intelligent design. I believe the one major flaw in the universe

  • Summary Of Is Google Making USupid By Nicholas Carr

    1260 Words  | 6 Pages

    In the totality of his essay, Carr provides evidence to support his positon, like of the University College London study on database user behaviour to illustrate that web users skim, rather than closely read online articles. Providing evidence, and making connections is characteristic of insight and we can see this in Carr’s essay. Instead, Lightman provides tentative solutions, with hypothetical reasoning, “If some cosmic intelligence created the universe, life would seem to have been only an afterthought. And if life emerges by random processes, vast amounts of lifeless material are needed for each particle of life. Such numbers cannot help but bear upon the question of our significance in the universe” (Lightman 507).

  • William Paley's The Teleological Argument

    802 Words  | 4 Pages

    Therefore, the world is not like a machine and because the analogy between a machine and the world collapses then there is no reason to believe that an intelligent designer created the world. Another alternative is that the world is actually more like a living organism than it is to a machine. This route would prove the second part of premise one ‘…parts adjusted to each other, with means to ends’. This would entail that the world was created in much the same way plants are produced. Therefore the world is an offspring of another world or worlds bigger and older and evolution gives us many credible justifications for how substances like plants and even animals came into existence.

  • Assess The Argument That Fossils Are Evidence Of Evolution

    745 Words  | 3 Pages

    One of the main arguments that Darwinsts use is the argument that fossils are evidence of evolution. I have gathered information from Your Inner Fish and internet sources. I found an article online that says in a nutshell; there 's two lines of evidence for evolution. The first line of evidence concerns the order in which fossils are found buried. Fossils are generally found buried in a sequential order.

  • Paley's Intelligent Design Argument

    789 Words  | 4 Pages

    In his 1802 work Natural Theology, William Paley attempts to logically prove that God exists and created the universe, known the Intelligent Design argument (Himma). In this argument, he states that the universe is like a watch in three relevant aspects, complexity, regularity, and purpose. Because of this, he says, we know that a watch has a creator, therefore the universe must also have a creator. However, I believe that this argument is flawed because I think the analogy does not work on two of these counts, regularity, and purpose. I also believe that Paley uses circular logic to explain his definition of purpose.

  • JL Mackie's Argument For The Existence Of God?

    295 Words  | 2 Pages

    JL Mackie was persuasive in his argument by showing that belief in an almighty God is not rational. He proves this by posing the problem of evil. According to JL Mackie, if God exists and is omniscient, omnipotent, and good then evil would not exist. However, evil exists in this world, sometimes in the form of undeserved suffering (diseases that affect humans, earthquakes, famines ...) and others perpetrated by man (murders, wars ...). If God exists and has the capability to be powerful, good, omniscient and omnipotent, why would he let evil be perpetrated?

  • What Are The Arguments Against Darwin's Theory Of Evolution

    1126 Words  | 5 Pages

    Introduction The theory of evolution has been discussed, evaluated, and researched many times since the theory was first brought to light. Darwin’s theory of evolution is said to be divided into two parts, common decent and natural selection (Bouzat, 2014). Many research papers agreeing with Darwin’s theory comment on the diversity of a species and how they have descended from one common ancestor. Natural selection is a process in which species that are better adapted to the environment tend to survive and reproduce (Dictonary.com).

    For this disputation, I had the pleasure of arguing against the topic of be it resolved that you can convince a non-believer to affirm the existence of God using philosophical arguments. As the opposing side, Sarah and I counter argued the following: the argument from motion, the ontological argument, Pascal’s Wager, the cosmological argument, the teleological argument, and the moral argument. The argument from motion argues that it is only possible to experience that which exists, and people experience God, therefore God must exist; however it can be counter argued that since faith cannot be demonstrated or experienced, as it is unseen, God cannot exist.

    In Alan Turing’s paper Computing Machinery and Intelligence, he proposes a thought experiment that would eventually be tested, and even later be beaten. He describes an experiment where a man and a woman are in two different rooms and an outside observer has to guess at the sexes of the participants. He then suggests that one of the participants be replaced with a computer. Once humanity is unable to tell the difference and will guess that the computer is human at the same rate that it will guess that it is a machine will answer Turing’s thesis of, “Can machines think?’ (434).

  • Essay On Mechanistic And Teleological Explanations

    743 Words  | 3 Pages

    I argue that while mechanistic and teleological explanations are distinctly different, both are required in order to thoroughly explain a phenomenon. In this essay, I will describe mechanistic, atomistic, and teleological explanations, highlight their key differences, and then explain why one cannot completely understand a phenomenon without incorporating a teleological component. A mechanistic explanation is one that describes “how” a phenomenon (such as breathing, growing, or eating) occurs. It conveys the physiological, or physical, movements and changes involved in that phenomenon.

    The Evolutionism or Creationism Debate The evolutionism-reationism debate has been going on for centuries among christians and scientists. However, creationism is said to have more logical proof of their points being the strongest. According to Charles Darwin, Natural selection is the process whereby organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring. The theory of its action was first fully expounded by Charles Darwin, and it is now regarded as be the main process that brings about evolution.

  • Argument Against Speciesism

    985 Words  | 4 Pages

    Speciesism, as it is described by the philosopher named Peter Singer, is an attitude of bias against the members of another species and toward the interests of one’s own species (Cushing 556). In our world, discrimination comes in many forms and occurs when someone is morally treated less than others for unjust reasons. Many people claim that speciesism can be put in the same category as racism, sexism and other forms of discrimination. Those who support this claim can agree that nonhuman animals and humans should be morally treated with equal consideration, but not everyone thinks there is anything wrong with speciesism. There are people who argue that humans are superior, and so the way we treat nonhuman animals differently could be justified.

    Nicalea Greenlee Astronomy, 7 December 15, 2017 Science vs. Religion Science and religion has always been an argument for years. I think science and religion are both very important to the way of life and how we see the entire universe. But I believe religion is more believable than science. For science can be proven wrong at any given time and religion can never be stated untrue. Such as the story of creation, evolution, practices and beliefs can contradict these theories.
