OCC Ontological Argument Discussion

Description

After completing the assigned readings from St. Anslem and St. Thomas Aquinas, select one of the following three options to complete:

Option 1: The Ontological Argument

Summarize and evaluate St. Anselm’s ontological argument. Begin by stating the argument in standard form. As you evaluate the argument, be sure to integrate either Gaunilo or Kant’s criticism of the argument into your essay. Do you find the argument persuasive or not?

In your summary, be sure to clearly label the premises and conclusion of the argument. When evaluating the argument, be sure to consider at least one objection to the argument. Do you find the argument persuasive? Why or why not?
