Philosophy and Ethics offers a great insight into complex aspects of our existence, what makes up the human character, what is the nature of our reality, how we come to make correct moral decisions and how we come to understand greater concepts such as the existence of God. There are three components to this course: Component 1 - Philosophy Philosophy includes a consideration of ultimate questions such as the existence of God, life after death, the problem of evil and the nature of the debate between science and religion. Philosophy will challenge your thinking of the everyday! Component 2 - Ethics Ethics involves studying different approaches to how people view morality. Does morality originate with God? Do we act out of duty? Is this the same as doing what is right? Can we define good as anything other than good? Component 3 - A Study of Religion – Christianity The study of Christianity asks the following questions: Who is Jesus? Did he really exist? Should we believe the Bible? Can you be rich and a Christian? What is Feminism? Are men and women the same? Christianity will take you beyond your understanding so far and look at how the faith developed into what we know today.
At least Grade 5 in GCSE Religious Studies. If not studied, at least Grade 5 in another extended writing subject.
