Here's my proof for God's existence, well not really but I learned this in philosophy.
God is the "greatest conceivable being" by definition. Therefore, God must necessarily exist because if God does not exist, that is not God because "the greatest conceivable being" would have to exist both in the imagination and in reality.
I hope I haven't confused you guys lol
Give me some feedback and tell me what you guys think.

It is a little confusing but philosophy usually is. However, I agree that from a logical standpoint, God must exist.

Conceivable can denote immagined. You have proven nothing! Nothining I say!
There's gotta be something, though. I just think that's it's not so smart to beleive that we know of things for sure that have never been seen, nor have been heard of since biblical times. The writers of the bible and such were the raving lunatics of the street corners of those days, the general public was just more gullible.
Like I said, there's gotta be something. Nothing grows from nothing, so there must have been something before the beginning of time. No reason to beleive that it still lives, though.

are you able to coach the large bang and evolution ? no you won't be able to and as properly...you may't prepare to every physique that god does not exist. so do not element palms until your palms are clean and by using the way. the bible has greater historic evidence than your evolutionary concept and massive bang which claims that the universe got here from not something appears like a extensive bounce of religion to me.

From the creation of the world, God's invisible qualities, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly observed in what he made. As a result, people have no excuse.
No proof required.

But how do you know the "greatest conceivable being" by your definition is the same for everyone else?

Of course the Bible is not the only proof of God's existence! Just open your eyes and take a look at creation all around you.....Do you think all this just happened?
The awesome beauty of Creation is a wonderful expression of God's love....yet some still choose to ignore it...
However, for those of us who know and talk to God daily we have experiential proof He exists....everything from answered prayers to peace of mind....you name it ; we have allowed His Holy Spirit to come into us....and we hear His voice daily AND see the wonderful results of His intervention in our lives.
You cannot intrude into that type of evidence however until you act on God's Word and let Him into your life through faith in Jesus Christ.
That type of experiential proof is reserve for those who put their trust in Christ

Read up on "circular logic" and the get back to me. This isn't proof of anything.

isn't it obvious that if god doesn't exist then that isn't god because he doesn't exist. and then by your logic if by the imagination i believe that the flying spagetti monster exists then in reality it does.

I think that made absolutely no sense whatsoever. Great argument!
