Ontological Argument
  1. Anselm's
    1. The man himself:
      1. Archbishop of Canterbury- therefore Theist
        1. From a religious perspective
        2. 1033-1109
        3. Starting point
          1. 1) Proposed def. of GOD
            1. (quote) 'God is the thought than which nothing greater can be thought
            2. 2) Absurd to suggest God does not exist
              1. Even fool of Psalm 14 must see
                1. Was a non-believer
                  1. Even suggestion GOD does not exist requires concept of God
                    1. Painter:
                      1. Has idea of painting for it is painted
                        1. Once painted it exists in his thoughts + reality
              2. Gaunilo's objection
                1. Would it arg also prove anything 'perfect' exists?
                  1. 'the most perfect island'
                    1. As it is 'the most perfect' it must exist
                      1. If it didn't exist, even the most horrible island in existing would be better
                2. Anslem's response
                  1. He wasn't arguing about contingent things (like islands) which are rooted in time and space
                    1. He was talking about GOD
                      1. quote: (Proslogion) the greatest thing that can be thought
