Note 211 — III. EL ISLAM
Reading edition
Existence of God is not “the common and almost universal belief of mankind.” The truth that there is a God is usually thus demonstrated:
1. Physical argument, in which effects and events are traced to causes, till arrival at a First Cause, uncaused.
2. Argument from final causes and design, of which innumerable evidences in physical and mental worlds point to a Great Original Designer.
3. Moral argument, based upon innate feeling of obligation and responsibility.
4. Historical argument and the consensus of mankind.
