Just for reference, this whole thing is a three-card scam and here's the gimmick:
1. God is defined as the maximally great being, greater than which cannot be conceived.
2. Ah, but I can conceive of a being greater than God.
3. Then this being, by default, becomes the maximally greatest being, thus must be God by definition.
See, this childish rhetorical wordplay is one of the reasons I don't bother.
