Philosophy Existence Of God Questions
The argument from consciousness and qualia as a basis for belief in the existence of God posits that the subjective experience of consciousness and qualia cannot be fully explained by naturalistic or materialistic explanations alone. It argues that the existence of consciousness and the subjective qualities of our experiences suggest the presence of a higher being or a divine consciousness. This argument suggests that the complexity and richness of our conscious experiences, such as the taste of chocolate or the feeling of love, cannot be reduced to mere physical processes and therefore require a transcendent explanation, which is often attributed to God.
