Abstract

This article critically and analytically addresses the objections made by the leader of the new atheists: Richard Dawkins, to the arguments of divine existence established by the renowned Christian theologian Thomas Aquinas in his book Summa Theologiae. In refuting these objections, narrated from his famous book The God Delusion, we have relied on the demonstrative rational method that ensures the scientific objective critique and analysis in such problems. The incoherence of Dawkins' sensory epistemological approach towards the theological subject matter and the weakness of his philosophical objections to the proofs of divine existence and divine attributes of the essence and action will be evident during the study. The origin of all these objections lies in his extreme materialistic inclination, and dominance of his delusive faculty over contemplative faculty, and his shallow vision towards things, and his not being aware of the necessary priori philosophical principles that have been the ground for the proofs of divine existence.
