Teleological/Design argument
AS PHILOSOPHY REVISION
- Posteriori argument for God
- Universe has intelligent designer based on experience of nature e.g order
- must have designer to account for design
- GARDEN ANALOGY
- see beautiful garden, flowers, herbs etc. in near rows we assume that
there is a gardener to keep it in order
- therefore there must be a designer keeping
the universe in order + only one powerful
enough is God
- therefore there must be a designer keeping
the universe in order + only one powerful
enough is God
- WILLIAM PALEY
- Human artifacts are a product of intelligent design
- universe resembles human artifacts + and itself is a
product of intelligent design but the universe is so much
more complex
- only being powerful + intelligent enough to design
universe is God
- AQUINAS DESIGN QUA REGULARITY
- his 5th way says universe could not have appeared by chance
- many things don't have intelligence to work towards their telos - end purpose + must
have something to direct them towards telos
- God exists as an explanation for this (beneficial order)
- DAVID HUME CRITICISM
- Saying world has omnipotent + intelligent designer just presents the
idea that there is a designer it doesn't prove that its God
- existence of design and regularity simply argues for design and purpose in the
universe, it does not argue for an intelligent dessigner God to be in charge of the
universe
- JOHN STUART MILL CRITICISM
- existence of suffering in the world leads to 2 things
- 1) God may be limited in some way andd not all omnipotent
- 2) God is not all good
- This means omnibenevolent attributes
of Christian God do not meet God
proposed by teleological argument
- A presence of evil and suffering indicate a fault in the design
- A presence of evil and suffering indicate a fault in the design
- This means omnibenevolent attributes

- DARWIN CHALLENGES
- nature proves an external force is not needed to explain
complexity fittest survive in this world + pass down DNA giving
appearacne of design in world

- ARROW ANALOGY
- An arrow is unintelligent so needs an
intelligent person to guide it towards the target
+ in the intelligence comes from the archer

- WATCH ANALOGY DESIGN QUA PURPOSE
- A watch is a product of intelligent design + as it is so complex it
must have an intelligent designer
- As the universe is even more complex than a watch the universe
must also have an intelligent designer GOD
- As the universe is even more complex than a watch the universe
must also have an intelligent designer GOD

- 1)
- see beautiful garden, flowers, herbs etc. in near rows we assume that

- must have designer to account for design
- STRENGTHS
- Using analogy of watch makes argument easy + simple to understand
- it uses something relateable ro help us understand
somethinng that we cannot actually relate to (designing
universe)
- it is difficult to deny presence of order + regularity
- gives a purpose to the universe + why it is the way it is
- when teleological argument is joined with other arguments for existence of God it raises
probability of God's existence
- This is called SWINBURNES ACUMULATIVE ARGUMENT FOR GOD
