The following is Fallacious (FALSE) Proof for God’s Non-existence:

1. Assume the Existence of God

2. Assume Nothing is Impossible for God

3. Since nothing is impossible for God, God must be able to make himself go
out of existence.

4. Either God cannot accomplish Step 3 above and is therefore not God,
or God has taken Himself out of existence.

5. Therefore God does not exist.

Now, the foregoing proof is false for two reasons. First, God is Good so therefore
God cannot do evil. Therefore it is better to say that nothing Good is impossible for
God. Since is better for God to exist than not to exist for God to go out of existence
would be evil and not inconsistent with our definition of God.

Next, given that the Logical Principle of the Excluded Contradiction is logically
necessary and exists, it is clear that you cannot have a proof which states God and not
God in the same proof.
