The Cosmological argument What are the significant features of the cosmological argument for the existence of God? (21) The cosmological argument is a classical theistic argument for the existence of God. It is one of the world’s oldest arguments. Many different philosophers have taken it upon themselves to try and solve the cosmological argument, so there are many different ideas of what God is, or if there is even a God at all. St. Thomas Aquinas is probably one of the most well-known philosophers of the cosmological argument as he came up with five steps that explained why there must be a “creator” and did not just state that there was one.
