In the modern world where religion and politics often clash you will gain a further understanding of the basis of beliefs and develop skills which will enable you to analyse arguments, form reasoned conclusions and being able to justify them. You will explore philosophical questions such as can God’s existence be proved? Is atheism the logical 21st Century viewpoint? Does science answer all the questions? Explore ethical theories such as utilitarianism and situation ethics as well as applying them in medical ethics, business ethics and sexual ethics. Discuss whether medical intervention does more harm than good? Is religion inherently sexist? Or racist? There is an in-depth study of Developments in Christian Thought covering the modern effect of religions belief on the world including secularisation and feminist, black and liberation theology. Typical questions include Can God suffer? Will Christianity become extinct? Does religious belief cause more harm than good? Does the concept of a soul make sense in a scientific world-view? Should religions become involved in politics? If you enjoy learning through group work, presentations, media and discussion and want to try to find answers to the big questions in life then this is the course for you.
Minimum of grade 6 in GCSE Religious Studies. For full course details, please refer to the individual subject information sheet on our website and/or our prospectus.
