List every property that your specific god/idea of god has, and I will mention one thing that is missing, and therefore makes "your" god not the Necessary Being.
No, don't walk into the trap. Something greater than The Necessary Being automatically becomes The Necessary Being, thus defeating the argument by default. Slippery bastard, this TNB.
You are confusing the Aquinas's 3W (Necessary Being) with his 4W (Degrees of Perfection). And if you mean the trap of inescapable logic that exposes the underlying irrationality of atheism then you are correct.
