I understand (or I think I do) Anslem's argument but I think he makes too big a jump between the possibility of God existing and the reality of God existing. It's possible for a lot of things to exist which do not in fact exist. And I think it is assuming too much to say that God's non-existance is contradictory. Martinguerre, don't you have ideas of things you know don't exist? Why should your idea of God be any different?
