2. WITHOUT EXCUSE
Atheists & theists alike agree that humans are innately predisposed to being creationists…termed “intuitive theism. Popular modern atheist Sam Harris states, “…several experiments suggest that children are predisposed to assume design and intention behind natural events-leaving many psychologists and anthropologists to believe that children, left entirely to their own devices, would invent some conception of God” (The Moral Landscape: How Science Can Determine Human Values; p. 151) “Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them” (Rom. 1:19). “That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after Him, and find Him, though He be not far from every one of us” (Acts 17:27)

3. INTELLIGENCE ARGUMENT
WITHOUT EXCUSE
INTELLIGENCE ARGUMENT
Major Premise: Intelligence demands previous intelligence
Minor Premise: Living beings possess intelligence
Conclusion: They must have been created by an intelligent being
In the natural universe intelligent beings (animals and humans) ONLY come from the same kind of intelligent being…so where did the first ones come from???
Atheists support the evolutionary theory that mindless matter produced intelligent life on Earth…which is entirely unsupported by observation and experience (science).

4. COSMOLOGICAL ARGUMENT
WITHOUT EXCUSE
COSMOLOGICAL ARGUMENT
Major Premise: Every material effect demands an adequate
antecedent cause which is greater than the effect.
Minor Premise: The Universe is a material effect.
Conclusion: The Universe had a greater antecedent cause.
Matter demands a Maker, but atheists assert that this Universe came from nothing (Big Bang Theory).
Observable truth (science) states that matter can be neither created nor destroyed (First Law of Thermodynamics)

5. WITHOUT EXCUSE BIOGENESIS ARGUMENT
Major Premise: Life arises from already existing life of its own kind.
Minor Premise: Life cannot generate from non-living chemicals.
Conclusion: A supernatural being must have created living organisms.
Only 3 possibilities for the origin of the universe (and life):
1. It created itself
2. It has always existed
3. It was created by a supernatural being

6. TELEOLOGICAL ARGUMENT
WITHOUT EXCUSE
TELEOLOGICAL ARGUMENT
Major Premise: Complex functional design demands a designer.
Minor Premise: The Universe exhibits complex functional design.
Conclusion: The Universe must have a designer.
Think of the exactness of placement of the earth, moon and sun.
Consider the precise way in which our bodies function.
Ponder the harmony of nature and the intricate design of the animal kingdom.

7. WITHOUT EXCUSE MORALITY ARGUMENT
Major Premise: If objective moral values exist, then God exists.
Minor Premise: Objective morals exist, such as right & wrong and good and evil.
Conclusion: Therefore, God exists.
Atheists agree that it is morally wrong to rape, murder, molest, and abuse others.
So there must be a standard to determine right from wrong…reason demands it.
If there is no God, then there is no objective basis for morality.
