10 Jan

Hello 11D. Just a reminder that you need to complete this Part D question for Monday (16th).

Remember to use the Christian beliefs about the soul handout you were given and to EXPLAIN (ie, give reasons for) what Christians believe the soul to be like, how it separates us from animals, and how Plato and St Paul understood it.

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

05 Jan

Your job is to write a response to the statement: “There is sufficient evidence for the existence of God”. This is due on Thursday 12th Jan.

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?

  • 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?)
