The Eternal Being. Cet article n’est pas disponible.The Eternal Being

As the title The Eternal Being suggests, this is a book devoted to proving the existence of an eternal being and what that entails. Chapter 1, "The Proof," provides a mathematical proof based on probability theory and the laws of logic that an eternal being must necessarily exist with a probability of 100 percent. The proof is based on empirical evidence gathered from a simple experiment that the reader can perform from virtually anywhere. Having proven the existence of an eternal being, chapter 2 delves into what exactly the implications of such a being are-most notably that such a being is self-existent with the power of being in and of itself and that it must also have the power to create non-eternal beings (i.e., beings that have a beginning) either directly or indirectly. Such a being is what most people would refer to as God. Chapter 3 considers other well-known arguments for God's existence from renowned philosophers and theologians many of which share some of the logic-based arguments discussed in chapters 1-2. To be fair to atheists and agnostics, chapter 4 considers arguments from equally renowned philosophers and scientists who argue either against the possibility that one can prove God's existence or that God is not needed to explain the cosmos. Counterarguments to these positions are also presented from which a conclusion is reached that God does indeed exist. Finally, chapter 5 considers what the various names of God are and what they mean. The chapter and the book end with a question for the reader to ponder, does God exist or not?
