Why must God be the perfect being? Is God is someone than whom none greater can be conceived? How does God's perfection set the trajectory for all other attributes in God? How does God's perfection necessitate his infinitude? In this new Credo video, Matthew Barrett discusses what perfect-making attributes must follow if Anselm is right that God is someone than whom none greater can be conceived.
