{{Cquote|Classical Apologetics is that style of Christian defense that stresses rational arguments for the existence of God and uses evidence to substantiate biblical claims and miracles.  It is quite similar to [[evidential apologetics]] and appeals to human reason and evidence.  Early Classical Apologists include [[Augustine]], [[Anselm]], and [[Thomas Aquinas]].  Contemporary classical apologists are Norman Geisler, William Craig, [[J. P. Moreland|J. P. Moreland]], and R.C. Sproul.

Some of the arguments relied upon for proofs of God's existence are the [[cosmological argument]] and the [[teleological argument]].  The cosmological argument attempts to prove that God exists by stating that there has to be an uncaused cause of all things.  That uncaused cause is God.  The teleological argument uses the analogy of design; that is, the universe and life exhibit marks of design.  Therefore, there must be a Designer.  Other times, strict evidence is used to establish Christianity's validity.  Of course, both aspects are also combined in classical apologetics.<ref>[https://carm.org/classical-apologetics Classical Apologetics] by Matt Slick</ref>}}
