Cosmological And Ontological Arguments

Cosmological And Ontological Arguments are classic theistic arguments. They are some of the most well-known and oldest in the philosophy field. Frame’s approach puts a presuppositional spin to both kinds that bolsters each point better by providing a foundation for the argument. Here, we cover the impossibility of uncaused causes in the universe. We also talk about the nature of God and the necessity of existence. We also sneak a little Austrian Economics in with Praxeology.
