1) necessarily if God does not exist then it is necessarily the case God does not exist
2) God's existence is possible
C) Necessarily God exists
Let:
G!= God exists
□(p⊃q)⊃(◇p⊃◇q). Theorem of K.
◇p⊃□◇p. Ax. 5
Proof:
1)□(~G!⊃□~G!). p
2)◇G! p
3)□(~G!⊃□~G!)⊃(◇~G!⊃◇□~G!) Theorem of K.
4)(◇~G!⊃◇□~G!) (1,3 MP)
5)~◇□~G!⊃~◇~G! 4 Contra.
6)~◇~◇~~G!⊃~◇~G! 5 M.E.
7)□◇G!⊃□G! 6 M.E., D.N.
8)◇G!⊃□◇G! Ax.5
9)□◇G! (2,8 MP)
10)□G! (7,9 MP)
