Ontological argument
The ontological argument begins with the definition of God as a being than which nothing greater can be conceived. This argument asserts that even atheists must acknowledge this concept.

Ontological argument 1 A piori argument Based on language- knowledge based on reasoning and not the senses or experience the argument is based on reasoning Gaunilo's criticisim: Subtopic Fatcs are needed- if the argument can prove the existence of a pretend island, it is flawed Just becauce you can consieve something- does not mean it exists Would be better if it was real- then it must exist The perfect lost island, better than any other, he could think of it Thus, it is impossible for a human to consieve a perfect being Our experiences through senses show the world is not perfect. They have the potential to improve. "written on behalf of the fool"- reference to pslams He never doubted the existence of god, he was also religious. He thought the argument was flawed. Begins with the definition of god If god only existed in thought- we would be able to think of something reater than god- this would be contradictory If there no being greater than god- god must exist in reality as well as in thought Something that exists in reality greater than in the mind alone You can think of winning the lotto- is it not better for it to happen than simply in the mind alone? It is a greater thing to exist than to not exist "God is a being than which nothing can be conseived" Even an atheist must aknowledge this Anselm Never doubted the existence of god
