moral argument
| One of four traditional lines of reasoning for the existence of God. It has several subtle forms. One is that without a just God to ensure that virtue is rewarded by happiness, morality would be impossible; and since morality is possible, God must exist. |
| The moral argument was originated by German philosopher Immanuel Kant, who claimed to have demolished the cosmological argument and the ontological argument. The remaining traditional argument is the argument from design. |
