Is not the ideal which is God made sensible by the fact that the principle of deductive logic cannot itself be deduced? It must, like ontological arguments for God, be assumed “in order to be proved“) Existence is not deduced as a property of perfection in the same way that a future (pending) puddle on pavement is deduced from present rain, because, unless something exists as a property of itself, then nothing exists. In other words, non-existence is not a property of anything either that exists or that does not exist, while existence ''is'' a property of anything that exists; and, only some things may exist necessarily; and, ''perfection of the ultimate concept (God) includes necessary existence'', while existence is not necessarily included in the concept of a personally possessed hundred thalers.

If God exists, then His existence surely is a necessary property of His perfection. But, if God does not exist, then it remains to explained how it can be deduced that existence is not a property of anything that exists. For, if nothing, including existence, is inherently mutual to anything, then nothing at all can be deduced, in any way, from anything.
