The Ontological Argument - valid or debunked?
RE: The Ontological Argument - valid or debunked?
Also, and I shouldn't have to say this but apparently I do: entities that actually exist do not have their properties suddenly change or be added onto, merely because somebody happens to come up with an idea that undercuts the argument you've made that is the sole piece of thought suggesting that entity exists. Me making an argument against the ontological argument should not, if we're talking about something that really exists, cause that thing to suddenly have new properties to get around that argument I made.

When I say a thing, and then three people come out of the woodwork to give their god new attributes that, oh so conveniently, were never important enough to mention until such time as they allowed the ontological argument to still be right, that not only suggests awful things about the ontological argument as it was written, that it left out so much apparently crucial information, but also is deeply suspicious.
