SUCCESS in the SCIENTIFIC METHOD PROVES THAT GOD NECESSARILY EXISTS

Preamble: Without God, there could be no science: Without God, the believer in atheist Dogma could have no rational expectation of constancy over time in any of the Laws of Nature, nor could he have any rational expectation of uniformity over time, anywhere in the universe -- both of which would be required in order to successfully complete the scientific method and reach any rational scientific conclusions about the universe. If God did not exist, then all of the Laws of Nature observed in the universe could change overnight, and all of the uniformity observed in the universe could also be lost forever, overnight. The only rational explanation for the fact that such changes in the Laws of Nature and in the uniformity of the universe cannot and do not occur is that God is personally upholding all of the Laws of Nature, and God is also personally upholding all of the uniformity that we observe throughout the entire universe. Section 1 (Preliminary Proof): Preliminary Premise A: Without God (or something like God), nobody could successfully complete the scientific method.* Preliminary Premise B: We can successfully complete the scientific method. Preliminary Conclusion: Therefore, either God or something like God exists in reality. *(See Section 2, below, for Proof of Preliminary Premise A). Section 2 -- Supplementary Proof (Proof for Preliminary Premise A): PA1: Without God (or something like God), the believer in atheist Dogma could have no rational expectation of constancy over time in any of the Laws of Nature, nor could he have any rational expectation of uniformity over time, anywhere in the universe. (There is nothing in existence other than God that could ensure constancy over time in any of the Laws of Nature, nor is there anything in existence other than God that could ensure any rational expectation of uniformity over time, anywhere in the universe. The only way to successfully refute this Premise would be to posit some entity other than God that could somehow ensure constancy over time in the Laws of Nature, and could also ensure a rational expectation of uniformity over time in the universe -- and then demonstrate that such a posited entity actually does ensure constancy over time in the Laws of Nature, and that it also ensures a rational expectation of uniformity over time in the universe). PA2: Both a rational expectation of constancy over time in the Laws of Nature and a rational expectation of uniformity over time in the universe would be required in order to successfully complete the scientific method and reach any rational scientific conclusions about the universe. PA3: If God (or something like God) did not exist, then all of the Laws of Nature observed in the universe could change overnight, and all of the uniformity observed in the universe could also be lost forever, overnight. (There is nothing in existence other than God that could ensure that the Laws of Nature won't change overnight, nor is there anything in existence other than God that could ensure any rational expectation of uniformity over time, anywhere in the universe. The only way to successfully refute this Premise would be to posit some entity other than God that could somehow ensure that the Laws of Nature won't change overnight, and that could also ensure a rational expectation of uniformity over time in the universe -- and then demonstrate that such a posited entity actually does ensure that the Laws of Nature won't change overnight, and that it also ensures a rational expectation of uniformity over time in the universe). PA4: Therefore the only rational explanation for the fact that such changes in the Laws of Nature and in the uniformity of the universe cannot and do not occur is that God (or something like God) is personally upholding all of the Laws of Nature, and God (or something like God) is also personally upholding all of the uniformity that we observe throughout the entire universe. (The only way to successfully refute this Premise would be to posit some entity other than God that could possibly uphold all of the Laws of Nature, and that could also uphold all of the uniformity that we observe throughout the entire universe -- and then demonstrate that the posited entity is actually upholding all of the Laws of Nature, and also upholding all of the uniformity that we observe throughout the entire universe). PA5: Therefore there is no entity in existence other than God that could possibly provide a rational basis for the scientific method to be completed with any rational expectation of success. (See P2). (The only way to successfully refute this Premise would be to posit some entity other than God that could possibly provide a rational basis for the scientific method to be conducted with any expectation of accuracy -- and then demonstrate that the posited entity is actually providing a rational basis for the scientific method to be conducted with an expectation of accuracy). Conclusion to Supplementary Proof: Therefore without God (or something like God), nobody could successfully complete the scientific method. Bonus Material: Supplementary Video (Included for Clarification of Argument in Section 2): Section 3 (The Clincher): P3.1: If "something like God" exists in reality, then God necessarily exists in reality. (In order for any real entity to be actually "like God," God would also have to be real " otherwise the entity in question would necessarily be "unlike God" by dint of one being real and the other being unreal). P3.2: "Something like God" exists in reality. (See Preliminary Proof in Section 1, above, for Proof of this Premise). FINAL CONCLUSION: Therefore, God necessarily exists in reality. Setup for QED -- please note the following three facts: 1. Section 3, which proves the FINAL CONCLUSION to this entire Argument, rests on Section 1. 2. Section 1 rests on Section 2. 3. Section 2 rests entirely on its own merit (neither on Section 1 nor on Section 3). FINAL CONCLUSION (deliberately repeated, for clarity): Therefore, God necessarily exists in reality. QED
