• b.      The watch (universe) is too complex and organized to be a product of chance

• c.       Once we establish that the universe is designed, only then we can [optionally] discuss other aspects of this argument.

• c.       God slowly reveals Himself through love and grace

P1. If God is all good, then He wants to stop evil

• b.      None is righteous, no, not one, so without regret, there’s no mercy of God.

• c.       Evil exists because we exist. We have free will to make choices.
