God exists.

To begin, I will derive a list of criteria through my opponent's proposed characteristics and definition of God. I shall then provide evidence to these list of criteria to establish the existence of God. Finally, I will point out that all my opponent's arguments are outside the scope of the stated topic and therefore bears no weight in the discussion of God's existence. Firstly, we must establish a common definition of God and criteria to "prove" divine existence. I shall accept the definition that God is "the Supreme Being, the supernatural being conceived as the perfect and omnipotent and omniscient originator and ruler of the universe and also as the object of worship in monotheistic religions." According to this definition, then God exists as long as 1) it is a "supernatural being", 2) it is CONCEIVED as the perfect and omnipotent and omniscient originator and ruler of the university, and 3) it is an object of worship in monotheistic religions. Second, I shall demonstrate satisfaction to the stated criteria. Evidences to the second and third criteria are quite abundant across the globe. The conception of God fitting the second definition is observably shared by religious groups and the practice of worship supports God's status as an object of worship. The only remaining requirement of proof is God's supernatural nature. According to Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, "supernatural" is defined as "of or relating to an order of existence beyond the visible observable universe." In another word, the very fact that my opponent sees no visible and/or observable evidence of God supports to God's supernatural nature. But God, whether as an ideal, a list of cardinal rules for moral behaviors, or a figment of imagination, most certainly exists in the mind of all his believers. Therefore, the existence of God is proved by the very existence of his followers. Finally, let us review my opponent's arguments. He first questions God's existence through the existence of evil but without any proof or evidence to the existence of evil as a visible or observable entity. If he shall agree that evil's existence can be recognized without visible and observable proof, then he must also agree that God can exist without visible and observable proof. If he denies evil's existence, however, then God is allowed to exist because evil does not. But regardless of his arguments or problems from either free will or divine hiddenness, none of which conflict with God's existence. As long as people can find their own justifications to the happening of their surrounding yet maintain the belief of a "supernatural being conceived as the perfect and omnipotent and omniscient originator and ruler of the university, and is an object of worship in monotheistic religions," then God exists. My opponent's personal inability to accept such conflicting attributes of God does not deny God's existence among all other religious followers. In conclusion, I have derived clear criteria to measure God's existence in accordance to my opponent's argument. I have also demonstrated God's existence as a "supernatural being conceived as the perfect and omnipotent and omniscient originator and ruler of the university, and is an object of worship in monotheistic religions" through satisfaction of the aforementioned criteria. Most importantly, I have shown that my opponent's personal questions and doubts to God's nature or aptitude are irrelevant to God's existence and therefore outside the scope of this debate. Therefore, I urge you agree with the affirmative.
