RE: The Modal Ontological Argument - Without Modal Logic

February 16, 2014 at 9:16 pm

MysticKnight, I'm fairly certain that's only the case with Euclidean geometry, which isn't even the way our own universe is spatially set-up as Rasetsu mentioned. Otherwise, I think you bring up a good point. As I said earlier, since you have to first demonstrate God's existence in the actual world. But if you could do that, what is the point of ontological arguments in the first place?
