A. Teleological Argument	I. There is order in the universe.
B. Causal Argument	II. There exists a perfect idea of God.
C. Cosmological Argument	III. Everything in the universe is caused.
D. Ontological Argument	IV. There is a purpose in the universe.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below.

• A. A-I, B-III, C-IV, D-II
• B. A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I
• C. A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
• D. A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

Hint:

Teleological means purpose or design, while ontological argument begins from the idea of a perfect God.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept:
Arguments for the existence of God are classified into different types. Each argument begins from a different idea such as purpose, cause, order, or the concept of God.

Step 1: Match Teleological Argument.
Teleological argument is based on purpose or design. So: \[ A \rightarrow IV \]

Step 2: Match Causal Argument.
Causal argument begins from the idea that things in the universe have causes. So: \[ B \rightarrow III \]

Step 3: Match Cosmological Argument.
Cosmological argument starts from the order and existence of the universe and moves toward a first cause or ultimate ground. In the given matching, it is linked with: \[ \text{There is order in the universe} \] So: \[ C \rightarrow I \]

Step 4: Match Ontological Argument.
Ontological argument begins from the concept or idea of God as a perfect being. So: \[ D \rightarrow II \]

Step 5: Final matching.
The correct matching is: \[ A-IV,\ B-III,\ C-I,\ D-II \] Hence: \[ \boxed{\text{(C)}} \]
