Each proof is in two stages: the first stage proves the existence of something which. Five Proofs for the Existence of God by Edward Feser The foundation of our faith is the existence of God. This work provides as ambitious and complete a defense of traditional natural theology as is currently in print. Feser (2017) presents and defends five proofs of the existence of God. ![]() Finally, it answers at length all of the objections that have been leveled against these proofs.
