Senguerdius:

That God exists, is clear from the
operations of creatures, which are such that they are directed by a certain reason towards a certain end. Thus, plants attract useful nutrients and avoid harmful ones. The nutrients they attract, they distribute through their parts, from which they draw beneficial juice, they protect themselves with barks, produce seeds, lest the species perish, protect fruits against harmful external causes. In animals, there is an inclination towards the conservation of life, even if it is uncomfortable in itself, towards propagation and care concerning offspring, even at the risk and expense of their own lives. For these to be obtained, some live in democracy, as ants; others in monarchy, as bees: Since, therefore, those which lack reason are governed by reason; necessarily follows and is certainly inferred, there exists some first reason and wisdom, which has instilled this into these creatures, and directs them. For if all this were done by chance without a superior directing, it would not be aimed at by all and certain species.

Reposting this for our dear most intellectual Neo atheists. Enjoy your study.

By Edward Feser

Once again gentlemen, I'd like to remind you that Theology is the Queen of Sciences, and also called Divine Science.

The three most important steps of polemical theology (besides personal piety) are (1) defining the relevant terms, (2) identifying the state of the question, and (3) evaluating arguments syllogistically. These three steps correspond to the three operations of the intellect.

The Impassibly Passionate God: An Apology for an Emotional God; an Apologetic for Suffering and Evil

The Problem of Suffering and Evil causes believer and unbeliever alike to question whether God (if there even is a God) is all-loving. This theodicy prompts a twofold question pertaining to God’s ontology: can we properly predicate 1) emotions and 2) suffering to the ontology of God? This thesis offers not only an apology of an Impassibly Emotional God but, in turn, provides an apologetic that speaks powerfully to The Problem of Suffering and Evil.

Saying “You think some people are in hell; therefore, you want people to go to hell!” is as idiotic as saying “You think some people die of cancer; therefore, you want people to die of cancer!”
