54 St. Anselm's Ontological Argument: Explain and Revisited
Can you know that God exists just by thinking about what the word "God" means? Anselm suggests that--with the help of God's grace--perhaps you can. Scholarch McLarney and Schoolman Fawcett discuss what the "ontological argument" of the Proslogion says (and doesn't say) and how to respond to the objections to the argument raised by Gaunilo and Thomas Aquinas.
Dr. Gerard McLarney and Mr. Brett Fawcett are teachers at St. Isidore ONLINE Chesterton Academy in Sherwood Park, AB Canada. SILC Chesterton Academy is a classical curriculum that combines a broad, liberal arts education with a strong emphasis on the development of Christian virtues and an appreciation of beauty. Through our Three Pillars Model, we form our students in: Intellect, Character and Spirituality.
As part of a larger online outreach school with Elk Island Catholic Schools, St. Isidore aims to deliver a joyful Classical Catholic Education. #ChestertonAcademy #ChestertonSchoolNetwork #classicaleducation #catholiceducation #joyfulcatholic
