Existence as Necessity

Existence as Necessity: A Philosophical Defense of the Cosmological Argument is the second volume in the Existence as Necessity series, following The Ontological Argument Through the Ages. This work offers a rigorous exploration of the Cosmological Argument through the lenses of metaphysics, philosophy, theology, and modern cosmology. Tracing the development of cosmological reasoning from Plato, Aristotle, Augustine, Aquinas, and Leibniz to contemporary analytic philosophy and Big Bang cosmology, the book examines causality, contingency, necessity, temporal finitude, and the search for ultimate explanation. Written especially for students of apologetics, seminarians, pastors, and thoughtful readers within the Romanian Christian community, this volume seeks to lay foundational intellectual groundwork for future defenders of the Christian faith, encouraging deeper engagement between reason, metaphysics, and belief in God.
