Criticisms of the aesthetic argument
- The argument assumes beauty is something immaterial instead of being a subjective neurological response to stimuli.
- A person's talent is assumed to be god's work and not his own hard work. ("How dare another human being make such beautiful music/poetry/art when I can't? It must be God that did it")
- The existence of evil & various types of ugliness invalidates the argument. ("Didn't God also created parasitic microbes?")
