Chapter 4

How things got started

The conception of a being than which a greater cannot be thought is a powerful one: it generates an impressive list of divine attributes, unifies them conceptually, and even reveals that such a being cannot fail to exist. But it doesn’t tell us everything there is to know about God. Readers familiar with standard Christian doctrine may have noticed two sizeable omissions thus far: the doctrine that God is the Creator and the doctrine of the Trinity. Anselm does not try to argue that it is greater to be a creator than not to be a creator, nor does he try to argue that it is greater to be a Trinity than not to be a Trinity.
