Anselm's other argument
by Smith, A. D., (Arthur David)
Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109 CE), in his work Proslogion, originated the "Anselm's Other Argument stakes an original claim in this debate, and takes it further.

This second argument surfaces in a number of forms, though always turning on certain deep, interrelatedmetaphysical issues.
