Erm... no, I'm not. I only concluded - not assumed - that you rejected this particular argument. Because you did do that - as I directly quoted from you, "as you can see by my questions I have serious doubt.". I assumed literally nothing else about you or your thoughts on any other subject. I only commented on the thing that you explicitly said.
If you accept the ontological argument despite your apparent issue with its premises, that's fair enough, but I don't think that I can really be blamed for concluding otherwise when you outright said that you weren't convinced.
I was referring to the OP's ability to paraphrase the original, that was his end question, correct.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
