"LOL. Don't hurt yourself trying to work through this," LOL! I worked this through 35 years ago. You cannot define something into existence. Kant understood that, although his explication was unnecessarily garbled. If you start with the "IDEA" of God is an IDEA of a perfect being, etc., then you see that it leads to proving nothing about the existence of an actual being. If you start with God IS a perfect being instead of with IF God exists THEN God is a perfect being--then you have simply begged the question. Think it over. If you still don't get it, then I will find a way to simplify it further for you when I am next online.
