The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Such arguments tend to refer to the state of being or existing.
- More specifically, ontological arguments are commonly conceived a priori in regard to the organization of the universe, whereby, if such organizational structure is true, God must exist.
- The first ontological argument in Western Christian tradition was proposed by Saint Anselm of Canterbury in his 1078 work, Proslogion, in which he defines God as "a being than which no greater can be conceived," and argues that such a being must exist in the mind, even in that of the person who denies the existence of God.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ontological argument article was read about 100,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 82 and blocks with 92: each hit it takes is cut by 37 %.
