The Ontological Argument - An Overview

A discussion of the ontological argument: what it is, what it attempts to prove, and why it doesn't work. I focus on St Anselm's and Alvin Plantinga's formulations.

The argument falls at the first hurdle, which leads to self contradiction. Omnpotence is a logical impossibility.
