520 |a The aesthetic argument for the existence of God is sometimes seen as a weaker younger cousin to the more powerful moral argument, but it may in fact be the more formidable of the two. The phenomenological aesthetic argument, presented here, brackets the question of beauty's objectivity.

These facets of aesthetic experience therefore ground a substantial argument against the merely Darwinian paradigm.
