Create a definition for the words ‘body’ and ‘soul’ which also describe what Christians think about the body and soul.
Use these words to help you:
SOUL – BODY – IMMORTAL – LIVE FOREVER – PHYSICAL – NON-PHYSICAL – CHRISTIANITY – HUMANS – DOES NOT DIE – HEAVEN – BREATH OF LIFE – ADAM’S NOSTRIL
The soul is described as the non-physical part of a person while the body is the physical part. Christianity teaches that all humans have an immortal soul. This means that it is a part of them which does not die when their physical body dies, but lives on and goes with them to Heaven. Christians believe that the soul is the ‘breath of life’ which God breathed into Adam’s nostrils.

What story are the pictures trying to tell?
The story of Adam and Eve being thrown out of the Garden of Eden is known as ‘The Fall’ – it is called this because by going against God’s instructions, they fell out of favour with Him, they had ‘fallen from His grace’.

You now have a re-ordering task based on this story and how it links to the idea of Original Sin and baptism.
The first and last part have been done for you:
1 The Garden of Eden is perfect
2 Adam is in the Garden of Eden
3 Eve is made to keep him company
4 Eve gets tempted by the Devil
5 Eve eats the fruit from the forbidden Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil
6 Adam and Eve have fallen from grace with God – they are disgraced by going against what His rules – this is known as ‘The Fall’
7 Eve has now brought the ‘Original Sin’ into the world by going against God’s instructions and being the first person to sin. Most Christians believe that we are all descended from Adam and Eve so we all have this Original sin in us.
8 Many Christians but not all, believe that Original sin is the way in which all humans are born with a lack of holiness about them and this is why most Christians will get their babies baptised which is where the ‘Original sin’ is washed away and the baby is purified by having Holy Water poured onto them. Adults can also get baptised for the same reason.
9 Some Christians think babies have original sin when they are born so have to be baptised. Others believe Original sin to mean that the world they are born into is sinful.
10 When people sin they are punished – like in society if you commit a crime, sinning is a crime against God – the ultimate punishment for sin is life without God – in other words, going to Hell.

Plenary:
What does Bart believe about the soul?
Doesn’t believe in the soul, It's just something they made up to scare kids. What does Milhouse believe?
Milhouse recognises the universal religious belief in a soul however diverse these views may be. Milhouse picks up on the idea of the eternal nature of the soul, that it outlasts and outlives our human frame. Also if you do bad things your soul will be punished in Hell.
What does Lisa believe?
Not sure if the soul is physically real but understands that the soul is priceless. Lisa is not sure whether the soul is a reality or merely a symbol of goodness in us but is aware that without it you are not whole.
Why does Bart change his mind?
Towards the end he does believe very much as things in his life appear to change e.g. pets don’t like him anymore, automatic doors won’t open for him, has no breath. Bart has come to realise that his soul is part of him, without it he is less than he should be. The world around him does not make sense without his soul.
