Some have cited diagonalization as a formal challenge to [[Saint Anselm]]'s [[ontological argument]] for the existence of God. In summary, Anselm argued that there must be a greatest idea and what could be greater than God? Therefore God exists.<ref>http://www.ephilosopher.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?104130</ref>

However, diagonalization argues that no greatest idea can exist: quite bluntly, God is infinite, therefore He can be diagonalized to produce an even greater infinite.<ref>''Topo-philosophies: Plato's Diagonals, Hegel's Spirals, and Irigaray's Multifolds'', Arkady Plotnitsky. In ''After Poststructuralism: Writing the Intellectual History of Theory'' Tilottama Rajan, Michael James.</ref> This seeming [[Disprove|disproof]] of the existence of God has cast doubt on the validity of Cantor's diagonalization.
