Unformatted sample text from the term paper:
everything just suddenly appear from nothing on its own? There must be a Creator, a Grand Designer for everything to exist (McKenzie, n.d.). Atheists claim that matter and energy
just always existed and they simply changed in form over millennia (McKenzie, n.d.). The atheistic argument is that "matter is self-existing and not created" (McKenzie, n.d.). However, McKenzie points out
that such a proposition defies the second law of thermodynamics, a law that has been proven (McKenzie, n.d.). This law states "all matter and energy tends toward maximum entropy" (McKenzie,
n.d.). Things will become disordered if they are in a closed system (McKenzie, n.d.). Living things age, that is part of this law (McKenzie, n.d.). Even bright stars burn
out and basically die (McKenzie, n.d.). Matter and energy are not self-sustaining, further, they always tend to go towards "maximum disorder" (McKenzie, n.d.) but they are not in maximum disorder,
thus the argument that matter and energy always existed is false (McKenzie, n.d.). Matter and energy had a beginning and that beginning came from God. One of the primary
arguments against Gods existence is the presence of evil in the world. In formal argument, the premise is that two infinites cannot co-exist. In this case, the two infinites are
goodness and evil. They are the opposite ends of a pendulum. If God existed there would be no observable evil. Since we know there is evil in the world, we
can observe it, then it follows that true goodness in the form of God does not exist. In response to this argument, St. Augustine said: Since God is the
highest good, He would not allow any evil to exist in His works, unless His omnipotence and goodness were such as to bring good even out of evil. This is
