An Argument from blackholes to mathematical platonism to OPT

 ...argument for ontic pancomputational theism from mathematical platonism and emergent spacetime... 1) if quantum blackholes are possible then spacetime is fundamentally empirically indeterminate 2) quantum blackholes are possible 3) spacetime is ultimately empirically indeterminate( 1,2 MP) 4) if spacetime is ultimately empirically indeterminate then spacetime is fundamentally nonphysical 5) spacetime is fundamentally nonphysical(3,4 MP) 6) if spacetime is fundamentally nonphysical we should hold to strong ontological skepticism over the commitment to the classification of any physical phenomenon as a concrete experience 7) we should hold to strong ontological skepticism over the commitment to the classification of any physical phenomenon as a concrete experience(5,6 MP) 8) if we should hold to strong ontological skepticism over the commitment to the classification of any physical phenomenon as a concrete experience then we should admit the existence of semantically determinate m...

An Anselmian/Cartesian Argument from Perfection

 ...Anselmian/ Cartesian ontological argument from perfection ...John Konnor... 1) exists a y for all x if y does not exist or x can doubt the existence of y then it is possible x exceeds y in ontological perfection C) God exists Let: DxE!y= x can doubt the existence of y E!x= x has existence Pxy= x exceeds y in ontological perfection g=i(y)~◇(∃x)Pxy Proof: 1)(∃y)(∀x)~E!y∨DxE!y⊃◇Pxy.                 P 2)(∃y)(∀x)~E!y∨DxE!y.                             AIP 3)~E!g∨DaE!g.                                          2, EI, UI 4)~E!g∨DaE!g⊃◇Pag.                             1,EI,UI 5)◇Pag.                              ...
