Swinburne, Richard.
The existence of God [electronic resource] / Richard Swinburne. - 2nd ed. - Oxford : New York : Clarendon Press ; Oxford University Press, 2004. - 1 online resource (vi, 363 p.)
Includes bibliographical references and index.
1. Inductive arguments -- 2. The nature of explanation -- 3. The justification of explanation -- 4. Complete explanation -- 5. The intrinsic probability of theism -- 6. The explanatory power of theism : general considerations -- 7. The cosmological argument -- 8. Teleological arguments -- 9. Arguments from consciousness and morality -- 10. The argument from providence -- 11. The problem of evil -- 12. Arguments from history and miracles -- 13. The argument from religious experience -- 14. The balance of probability -- Additional note 1 : the Trinity -- Additional note 2 : recent arguments to design from biology -- Additional note 3 : Plantinga's argument against evolutionary naturalism.
Richard Swinburne presents a substantially rewritten and updated edition of his most celebrated book. No other work has made a more powerful case for the probability of the existence of God. Swinburne argues compellingly that the existence of the universe, its law-governed nature and fine-tuning, human consciousness and moral awareness, and evidence of miracles and religious experience, all taken together (and despite the occurrence of pain and suffering), make it likely that there is a God.
