Cool, God exists as an abstract object, the same way faeries do, as an idea. I already knew that. So you had no inkling that by 'exist' I meant actually exist independently in reality, not just in people's heads? Didn't even cross your mind?

What are you talking about? You asked: "Can anyone think of an example of an object or entity that has actually been proven to exist by argument alone, no evidence, besides a deity?"

I answered: Abstract objects. I never commented on whether God was an abstract object or why you think that any deity has ever been proven to exist by argument alone. 

Do you think the concept of 7 or [p then q; p therefore q] is just in people's head or is an aspect of reality independent of the our minds?
