The Top Arguments When Talking to Atheists, Agnostics and Sceptics
- The argument from design: This argument states that the complexity and order of Earth and living organisms shout out existence of an intelligent designer. There is complexity of DNA, and the irreducible complexity of certain biological systems are all evidence of design.
- The moral argument: This argument states that the existence of objective moral values and duties means the existence of a moral lawgiver. Atheists and skeptics often appeal to moral values and duties, but they cannot provide a basis for these values and duties without appealing to a transcendent source.
- The argument from consciousness: This argument states that the existence of consciousness is evidence, the existence of a non-physical mind or soul is evidence of the Creator. Consciousness is a mystery that cannot be explained by natural causes alone.
- The argument from the resurrection: This argument states that the historical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus provides strong evidence for the existence of God. The resurrection is one of the best-attested events in ancient history and that the evidence for it is compelling.
- The argument from personal experience: This argument states that personal experiences of God provide evidence for the existence of God. As many people have had experiences that they interpret as encounters with God, and that these experiences cannot be dismissed as mere delusions or hallucinations.
- The argument from the origin of the universe: This argument states that the origin of the universe suggests the existence of a cause outside the universe. The text notes that the Big Bang theory provides strong evidence for the beginning of the universe and that this beginning requires a cause outside of Earth.
- The argument from the complexity of language: This argument states that the complexity of language suggests the existence of a designer. Also note that language is a uniquely human ability that cannot be explained by natural causes alone.
