The Transcendental Argument for the existence of God (TAG) is a transcendental argument that attempts to prove the existence of God, i. e. it attempts to prove the necessary conditions for the possibility of something (e. g. knowledge) contradict with the proposition that God does not exist.[1]
A version was formulated by Immanuel Kant in his 1763 work The Only Possible Argument in Support of a Demonstration of the Existence of God. C. S. Lewis's argument from reason is also a kind of transcendental argument.
Most contemporary formulations of a transcendental argument for God have been developed within the framework of Christian presuppositional apologetics and the likes of Cornelius Van Til and Greg Bahnsen.[2]

But what about The Transcendental Argument for the Existence of God (TAG)--the argument that logic, science, and objective ethical standards presuppose the existence of God?
