Causabon Δημοσ. 29 Μαρτίου 2003 Δημοσ. 29 Μαρτίου 2003 Εξαιρετικά, απίστευτα αστείο. Φοβερό! Το (ίσως) μόνο δραματικό της υπόθεσης είναι ότι αρκετά από αυτά τα επιχειρήματα έχουν ειπωθεί στην πραγματικότητα ... Επίσης, για να βάλω τα πράγματα στη θέση τους, το τελεολογικό επιχείρημα (6ο) έχει διατυπωθεί από τον ʼγιο Θωμά τον Ακινάτη και δεν είναι ακριβώς όπως γράφεις αλλά ως εξής: "Φυσικά σώματα που στερούνται νοημοσύνης έχουν κάποιο σκοπό στη φύση (π.χ. ο "σκοπός" του χώματος είναι να θρέψει τα φυτά). Αφού στερούνται νοημοσύνης -και άρα βούλησης- πρέπει να έχουν σχεδιαστεί από κάποιο Δημιουργό (το Θεό)". Το αντεπιχείρημα το αφήνω ως άσκηση στον αναγνώστη <img src="http://www.insomnia.gr/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> === ʼλλα παράλογα επιχειρήματα (περί ύπαρξης Θεού) που έχουν ειπωθεί ανά καιρούς: 1. Το Ηθικό Επιχείρημα. "Οι άνθρωποι χαρακτηρίζονται από Ηθική ενώ τα ζώα όχι. Η Ηθική δίνεται στον άνθρωπο από το Θεό. Δίχως το Θεό, (τη μεγαλύτερη πηγή και αυθεντία Ηθικής) δεν υπάρχει παρά ο νόμος της ζούγκλας". 2. Το "Πιστεύω γιατί με ανακουφίζει" επιχείρημα (Maartin Gardner κ.α.). "Σε θέματα εξαιρετικής σημασίας, όταν αποδείξεις προς την μία ή την άλλη κατεύθυνση είναι αδύνατες και πρέπει να πάρεις μια απόφαση, είναι αποδεκτό να βασιστείς στην απλή πίστη. 3. "Πρωταρχική Αιτία" (πάλι Αγ. Θωμάς ο Ακινάτης). "Κάθε τι έχει και μια αιτία, αλλά και αυτή η αιτία πρέπει να έχει και μια άλλη, κ.ο.κ. Μιας και δεν μπορεί αυτό να συνεχίζεται επ'άπειρον, χρειαζόμαστε μια πρωταρχική αιτία, η οποία δε χρειάζεται αιτία: Το Θεό". 4. Θαύματα (Βίβλος). "Το θαύμα αποτελεί εξαιρετικά ασυνήθιστο και ανεξήγητο γεγονός -κατά μερικούς παράκαμψη των νόμων της φύσης- από τη Θεία Βούληση. Δεν υπάρχει άλλη εξήγηση για τα θαύματα, από την ύπαρξη του Θεού". Και η λίστα από τα "επιχειρήματα" που έχουν ειπωθεί γκόουζ ον εντ ον ... Πάλι, τ'αντεπιχειρήματα θα τα αφήσω ως άσκηση. Καζ.
