Aquinas advances an ontological argument for the existence of God that enlists a perfect island thought experiment.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Aquinas did not advance an ontological argument; instead, he is known for his Five Ways, which are cosmological arguments for the existence of God. The perfect island thought experiment is associated with Anselm's critic, Gaunilo, in response to Anselm's ontological argument, not Aquinas.
