Freedom as origin - 2026.


44

Although the thesis of God’s existence has been defended by various serious arguments for more than two millennia, their complexity makes them unsuitable to convince the majority. In this context, we present a new way of formulating and answering the question of God, without relying on modal logic or advanced knowledge in physical sciences. The starting point is based on pure subjective experience. From this perspective, necessity seems to apply only to the existence of abstract truths, without creative power. Moreover, the ability to make free choices cannot exist outside of consciousness. Logically, this leads to the hypothesis that only infinite freedom can play the role of the first entity, from which divine attributes are demonstrated: consciousness and personality, omnipotence and omniscience, and, incidentally, goodness.
