types of arguments that speak about the existence of God. One of the most fascinating arguments for the existence of a completely perfect God is Anselm’s ontological argument for the existence of God. It is indeed adequate for establishing the necessary existence of the Greatest Conceivable Being. Although there are several different versions of the argument‚ all pretend to show that it is contradictory to deny that there is a greater possible being.

St. Anselm (1033/34-1109)‚ was abbot of Bec and later archbishop of Canterbury (pg. 444). The Ontological Argument‚ has two basic arguments that God exists and there is not greater being than God. Anselm’s main goal is to deepen the love and understanding of God‚ and uses natural theology. This is the study of what could be know about God independently of special revelation.
