"There is a lot of evidence to prove there is a God.” Discuss this statement. You should include different, supported points of views and a personal viewpoint. You must refer to Christianity in your answer. [12]
Here are the arguments
Mark Scheme
Candidates might consider some of the following: Christian use of philosophical arguments for the existence of God and how others have argued against them. Candidates may refer to evidence in the form of sacred writings, lives of special people, eg Jesus Christ and the saints, miraculous events, continuing numbers of Christians in the world, spiritual experiences that convert people to Christianity. They may refer to the different emphases that Christians place upon the above evidence. Generations of family beliefs and traditions may be discussed as evidence. Different points may include secular views such as Stephen Hawking, science disproving religion, arguments from another religious perspective or too much suffering in the world. Some may discuss semantic views on the words ‘truth, legend, myth, fact, fiction’ etc and how we decide what is evidence.
