Estos argumentos son: el Cosmológico, la Teoría del Diseño Inteligente y el Principio Antrópico. En esta contribución damos una síntesis de los dos primeros y emitimos un juicio sobre su valor probatorio desde la filosofía de la ciencia. A diferencia de las clásicas demostraciones teístas, también basadas en la ciencia, como la 1ra. y 5ta. vía que expone Tomás de Aquino en la Suma Teológica o la de Newton en sus Principia, ninguno de los argumentos actuales citados concluye que Dios existe, entendiendo por tal un ser omnipotente, omnisciente y bondadoso, en otras palabras, el Dios bíblico. Quedan un paso antes, confiando a la filosofía la tarea de proseguir y demostrar que esa causa primera o esa inteligencia trascendente es Dios. Además de pronunciarnos sobre el valor probatorio del argumento cosmológico y de la teoría del diseño inteligente, demostramos, basados en las usuales nociones de ciencia y pseudociencia, que la teoría del diseño inteligente es una genuina hipótesis científica, refutando así la extendida y gratuita afirmación de que se trata de un caso de pseudociencia.

Today at least three arguments are being discussed that, based on the results of scientific research, try to prove the existence either of a cause of the physical universe, one of them, or of an intelligence transcendent to it, the other two. These arguments are: the cosmological argument, the theory of intelligent design and the anthropic principle. Here we present a synthesis of the first two and make an evaluation of their worth from the philosophy of science. Unlike classic theistic demonstrations, also based on science, such as Thomas Aquinas’1st and 5th ways, developed in his Summa Theologica or that of Newton in his Principia, none of the current arguments cited conclude that God exists, if we understand by "God" an omnipotent, omniscient and benevolent being, in other words, the Biblical God. They stop on step before, entrusting to Philosophy the task of continuing and demonstrating that this first cause or that transcendent intelligence is God. In addition to giving our judgment on the probative value of the cosmological argument and of the intelligent design theory, we demonstrate, based on the usual notions of science and pseudoscience, that the latter is a genuine scientific hypothesis. In this way, we refute the spreading and false affirmation that this theory is a case of pseudoscience. |
