The Ontological Argument for the Existence of God
#47
RE: The Ontological Argument for the Existence of God
The ontological argument doesn't really do anything to support God's existence. All it says that if such a being is possible in reality, then such a being exists. But it hasn't been demonstrated that it's possible. And I mean through arguments, and not necessarily evidence. Kalam doesn't do it, the contingency argument doesn't do it, the moral argument doesn't do it, none of the arguments I've seen thus far for God show that such an entity is possible. All they do is propose such a being as the explanation.
