Kinda, but doesn’t the whole thing self-evidently disintegrate at step 2? (Thus, God, being perfect, must necessarily exist, for not to exist would violate his perfection.) How does perfection lead to necessary existence? A perfect circle doesn’t exist. But we have a nifty grasp of what a perfect circle should be. ---

I’ll take up the atheist slack: It is possible that God does not exist, therefore it is impossible for God to exist. Also, the Packers are mathematically eliminated from the playoffs. Ha ha. You should have kept Favre. ---

It takes a lot of effort to be this obtuse. Is she mentally ill? Because if she is, maybe we shouldn’t be picking on her. She seems to have extremely low self-esteem–seeking validation from anonymous people on the internet is pretty sad, really. Does she not have any real friends? I’m almost starting to feel sorry for her. ---
