What is the Cosmological argument?. Cosmological: Referring to the origin and structure of the universe.. The cosmological argument tries to prove that there is a perfect and well ordered universe, and a world in which we live (cosmos), rather than nothingness, because God brought the cosmos into existence. Theists argue that the universe is perfect because it was created by God and is not the result of random chance (the big bang theory).. Ue. -Li Pen. Tingting. Lu. Olivier Dore. Cosmological Errors. How do we know errors on measurement and theory?. For Gaussian field, P(k) is 2-PCF, its error (Fisher) is 4-PCF, and the error on Fisher is 8-PCF.. 1. Topics ahead. Computation in general.
