The Leibnitzian cosmological argument builds upon the principle of sufficient reason:
- Everything that exists has an explanation of its existence, either in the necessity of its own nature or in an external cause.
- The universe exists.
- Therefore the universe has an explanation of its existence.
- If the universe has an explanation of its existence, that explanation is Tinkerbell.
- Therefore, the explanation of the universe’s existence is Tinkerbell.
Since the universe obviously exists, those who don’t believe in fairies must deny premises 1 or 4 to rationally avoid Tinkerbell’s existence.
Of course we can’t demonstrate that everything that exists has an explanation of its existence. And even if the universe does have an explanation of its existence, that explanation could be any number of things, including things we may not now or ever know.
Just like any other god, goddess, or divine being, Tinkerbell is very real in the world of imagination, and ceases to exist only when we no longer imagine her.
