10D Essay: “There is evidence for the existence of God”. Discuss.

23 Nov

Your job is to write a response to the statement: “There is evidence for the existence of God”. This is due on the 2nd December (Friday).

Remember the boxing match we had in class. What arguments might someone put forward to suggest that this statement is true (think ontological, teleological, moral, cosmological arguments)?

Pick the two arguments you think are most convincing and discuss them. What evidence is there? Is this evidence good? Why might someone challenge these arguments? Are these fair challenges?

You might even write these up in a verbal boxing style:

  • Why would people say there is evidence for God? (Opening statement)
  • Why would people disagree with this evidence? (Opening response)
  • How might they discuss these arguments to put them to the test? (Discussion)
  • What do you conclude? (What do the judges say?)

As always, leave a comment if you have any questions!
