3.1 - Believing in God KEYWORDS AgnosticismNot being sure whether God exists. AtheismBelieving that God does not exist. Conversion When your life is changed by giving yourself to God Free will The idea that human beings are free to make their own decisions. Miracle Something which seems to break a law of science and makes you think only God could have done it. Moral evilActions done by humans which cause suffering. Natural evil Things which cause suffering but have nothing to do with humans Numinous The feeling of the presence of something greater than you Omni- benevolent The belief that God is all- good OmnipotentThe belief that God is all-powerful Omniscient The belief that God knows everything that has happened and everything that is going to happen. Prayer An attempt to contact God, usually through words. 1. ASSESS YOUR CURRENT LEVEL TOPIC AREA 1 CAUSES OF BELIEF TOPIC AREA 2 RELIGION AND SCIENCE TOPIC AREA 3 THE PROBLEM OF EVIL I can identify the different elements of a religious upbringing and explain why a religious upbringing may lead to belief in God. I can use the argument from design and the argument from causation for God’s existence to explain how reflection on the existence of the world could lead to belief in God. I can explain how the presence of evil and suffering in the world could lead someone to not believe in God. I can describe the 4 main types of religious experience and explain why these experiences could lead to a belief in God. I can use the Big Bang Theory and idea of evolution to explain how scientific explanations of the origins of the world could lead someone to not believe in God. I can explain how unanswered prayers lead some to not believe in God. I can explain how different groups of Christians respond to the challenge of science to religious belief. I can explain different ways that Christians can respond to the challenge of evil to religious belief. I can explain with examples how the media presents issues of belief in God 2. TARGET YOUR WEAKNESSES -Choose the topic area that you are currently the least confident in, use it as your focus for a concentrated section of revision.
