"Modal Infallibility" and the concept of a necessary being

Percivale said:

well, believing, as well as doubting, are forms of thinking, so, no its not possible, to believe something without thinking; and thing is about as undefined a word as you can get. Come on, don't tell me you really think there is any possibility that nothing at all exists.

I don't care much for modal arguments, they often are just sophistry I think. I'm more into pragmatism; I figure if there's a decent amount of evidence for something and it works well, might as well believe it.
