Is The Cosmological Argument Proof?

Question 1

No - Inductive and a posteriori
argument

Answer 1

Inductive arguments deal in probability rather than proof, a posteriori arguments can also only lead to probability rather than certainty.

Question 2

Yes - High probability

Answer 2

Evidence isn’t proof because it can’t guarantee the truth but there are many reasons why we should accept it as proof due to the overwhelming probability. Eg proving the sun atomic particles exist through experiments and evidence could be wrong but given the evidence towards their existence it would be unreasonable to argue against their existence.

Question 3

No - Doesnt convince everyone

Answer 3

The argument can hardly be proof because the majority don’t see it as convincing eg it doesn’t satisfy atheists
