Therefore

I love this list of "proofs" of God's existence. Here are the first three, in a lame attempt to increase the length of this post.

TRANSCENDENTAL ARGUMENT, a.k.a. PRESUPPOSITIONALIST (I)
(1) If reason exists then God exists.
(2) Reason exists.
(3) Therefore, God exists.

COSMOLOGICAL ARGUMENT, a.k.a. FIRST CAUSE ARGUMENT (I)
(1) If I say something must have a cause, it has a cause.
(2) I say the universe must have a cause.
(3) Therefore, the universe has a cause.
(4) Therefore, God exists.

ONTOLOGICAL ARGUMENT (I)
(1) I define God to be X.
(2) Since I can conceive of X, X must exist.
(3) Therefore, God exists.

Seeing today's archaeological news, I'm inspired to add another proof to the list:
(1) Archaeologists believe they have found King Herod's tomb.
(2) Therefore, Jesus existed.
(3) Therefore, God exists.
