I don't think I've ever praised an ontological argument although I find them interesting. Mostly I respect the cosmological ones.
Perhaps I was mistaken about you in that respect. If I was Huggy-like, I would track down every kudos you ever gave a fellow theist who used the ontological argument (SteveII comes to mind) to play gotcha. But I don’t care enough to do it. If you say you are not impressed by that line of reasoning, I’ll take you at face value. And agree.
