Philosophical arguments such as the Kalam cosmological argument propose that because the universe began to exist, it must have a cause, urging consideration of a cause beyond time and space, potentially supportive of the concept of God. Additionally, the fine-tuning argument emphasizes the extraordinarily precise conditions necessary for life, with Roger Penrose highlighting an immense probability against random chance, suggesting that the idea of God is a compelling explanation for our existence. Despite a non-religious stance, the arguments for God's existence in these contexts present stronger rationale than counterarguments from notable atheists.
