From Descartes' perspective, nature is a representation
of God; therefore, God must intrinsically exist, inasmuch as he, too, is a
product of His own creation. Descartes was
one of many philosophers who fully supported this argument
in support of God\'s existence, contending that the external
world is the ruling force behind the presence of all beings. Descartes\'
assertions, as portrayed within the literary
boundaries of Meditations on First Philosophy, were founded
not in cosmological or ontological arguments but rather in
teleological debate, inasmuch as the philosopher believed
that there has to be an omnipotent entity responsible for
all the purpose and order that is found within natural
existence and, thereby, stimulating a sense of wonder about
the world.
