Anselm's Definition Of God
1572 Words - 6 Pages

.... eternal. After reading the Proslogion by Anselm, it gave me a greater understanding of these attributes listed above.

One example of this is, that as a child we utterly depended on our parents for food, clothing, and shelter. Contingent beings therefore can ....

.... only one possible to blame for its appearance. Martin Tropp states that the monster is "designed to be beautiful and loving, it is loathsome and unloved" (64).

He overlooks the seemingly obvious fact that ugliness is the natural result when something is made from parts of different corpses and put together. Were he thinking more clearly he would have noticed monster's hideousness. Anoth ....
