| description |
Today at least three arguments are being discussed that, based on the results of scientific research, try to prove the existence either of a cause of the physical universe, one of them, or of an intelligence transcendent to it, the other two. These arguments are: the cosmological argument, the theory of intelligent design and the anthropic principle. Here we present a synthesis of the first two and make an evaluation of their worth from the philosophy of science. Unlike classic theistic demonstrations, also based on science, such as Thomas Aquinas’1st and 5th ways, developed in his Summa Theologica or that of Newton in his Principia, none of the current arguments cited conclude that God exists, if we understand by "God" an omnipotent, omniscient and benevolent being, in other words, the Biblical God. They stop on step before, entrusting to Philosophy the task of continuing and demonstrating that this first cause or that transcendent intelligence is God. In addition to giving our judgment on the probative value of the cosmological argument and of the intelligent design theory, we demonstrate, based on the usual notions of science and pseudoscience, that the latter is a genuine scientific hypothesis. In this way, we refute the spreading and false affirmation that this theory is a case of pseudoscience. |
