dexlargo - I think we've been assuming S5 (or at least S4) in terms of modal logics. And I guess the argument you quote (if God exists, He exists necessarily) has the same form as the one we've been discussing - ie 'existing in all possible worlds is better than existing in one' vs 'existing is better (more perfect) than not existing'...
