Verum in principio falsa est facta

When I read G. K. Chesterton
This Latin phrase I have coined comes to mind.
For, he has presented the ultimate argument
That God exists, and this argument is based
Upon human conscience.
There can be no other argument by which to base
Our belief in God in all of apologetics.
For if the moon stays its cycles in the daytime
And it does, it is still inefficient for purposing
The proof of God's existence.
Only upon the conscience, can we prove God exists.
For all other facts are mutable.

For, it is not the question of whether human beings are somehow 
Superior to the animals---this does not define us as human.
For the angels are superior to us in art and intelligence,
And we probably shadow them in our abilities
Just like the animals shadow us in ours.
It is that an animal, when it gains the faculty of reason
Becomes far less violent, far more nurturing,
Far more empathetic,
And less likely to consume their young.
The less intelligent animals,
Such as my angelfish,
Will hedonistically lay eggs
And derive the pleasure of laying them
And fertilizing them,
Only to turn around and eat them.

Man, having a conscience,
Will indeed partake in these same behaviors.
Yet, it is not because of our sentience that we do.
The animals who have gained religion, reason, art or tools
Show themselves to be conscientious
And nurturing, to where they do not show
Aggression, or lack of civility.
Rather, wherever sentience burgeons
Those animals become more aware
In their sense of Other.

What separates a man from an animal
Is our ability to reason right from wrong;
To have the capability to judge what is right
From what is wrong.
Yet, when man had gained this,
Which is the theme of the story 
Of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden,
It is when man had become fully man.
And it is this conscience which proves God exists.
Even when it is found in the animal kingdom,
Evolved from the higher intelligences
Of the few animals who shadow our ability,
It is not proof against God
That the animals have these faculties
But the universality of the faculty,
The fact that even species beside us can begin to understand it
Proves there is moral truth,
So therefore, truths beyond the observed.
So be it that man---
Acting like the beast---
Decides conscionably to stop obeying that
Even this proves God exists,
For the choice to disobey what is human
For the course of what is natural---
As nature has its morality, and humanity another---
It shows that what makes us human is indeed the proof of God.
The choice to disobey it, or the choice to obey it.
The compulsion or accidental indulgence in that natural flesh
Or the willful desire to adhere to the higher principles
Which human beings understand and no other animal can.
