The Ontological Argument for the Existence of God

The 'math' is not proof, but rather a 'definition of the proof' assuming one accepts the premise in the first place.

Even if one accepts 'modal logic', it still cannot prove god's existence as there is no information to suggest that a god is necessary or even possible.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

God has no place within these walls, just as facts have no place within organized religion.
-- Superintendent Chalmers

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.

Once something's been approved by the government, it's no longer immoral.
