Aquinas presented five ways to argue for God's existence in his work, the "Summa Theologica." These arguments include the argument from motion, causation, contingency, degrees of perfection, and teleological reasoning (design). Each way seeks to demonstrate God's existence through different aspects of reality, emphasizing the need for a first cause or necessary being. Together, they form a comprehensive philosophical framework for understanding the existence of God.

Why does aquinas think that we can't explain everything merely in terms of natural phenomena?
Aquinas believes we cannot explain everything solely through natural phenomena because he posits the existence of a higher, transcendent cause behind the natural order. He argues that while natural causes can explain many events, they ultimately point to a First Cause or ultimate source, which is God. This First Cause is necessary to account for the existence and contingency of all things, as natural phenomena themselves cannot provide a complete explanation for their own existence. Thus, Aquinas emphasizes the importance of metaphysical inquiry alongside empirical observation.
