Three Arguments for the Existence of God Compared. Ontological argument . Two philosophers who famously presented and defended an ontological argument for the existence of God were St Anselm and Descartes. They both argue that we can deduce the existence of God from special properties about the idea of God. Here is St Anselm’s version: By definition, God is a being greater than which cannot ...

1 Kant, in Norman Kemp Smith's translation of The Critique of Pure Reason, referred to the impossibility of an "Ontological Proof" for the existence of God, but concludes that Descartes' "ontological argument" is futile. Now, even its adherents, like Plantinga, refer to it as the "Ontological Argument." See, e.g., Plantinga, 1965.

In recent years there has been a surge of interest in Goedel's ontological proof of the existence of God. Goedel showed his proof (Goedel *1970) to Scott, and Scott made a note of the proof and presented it in his seminar at Princeton University in the fall of 1970. From then on, Goedel's proof has become widely circulated. It was finally published in Sobel 1987 as an appendix and later ...

How convincing are ontological arguments for a justification in the belief of God. The Ontological argument is an a priori argument that seeks to prove the existence of God on the grounds of reason. The two classical formulations of the argument were put forward by 11th century Bishop Anselm and the 17th century French mathematician and philosopher Rene Descartes. Both arguments justify the ...

The most influential formulation of this argument (though he did not use the term ontological) is found in the first three chapters of the Proslogium of Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109). He had earlier written a Monologium in which he considered many arguments for God’s existence. But then, he says, ‘I began to ask myself whether there might be found a single argument which would require ...

An ontological argument, for Kant, is an argument for the existence of God that purports to derive his existence from his mere possibility. In this sense, Anselm, Descartes and Leibniz all gave ontological arguments for God’s existence. The term ‘ontological argument’ comes from ‘ontotheology’ – another Kantian coinage – the part ...
Augustine’s Argument for the Existence of God
In his Monologion, Chapter 1, Anselm offers an argument (not the ontological argument and not the argument examined in this paper) for the existence of God - a thing that is supremely good and “has no equal and no superior.” In the Prologue to the Monologion, Anselm says, or at least implies, that, in the Monologion, he is only expounding Augustine’s view as expressed in On the Trinity.
