I'm Etalie, I'm currently studying for my AS levels and will (hopefully) be posting revision entries on psychology and sociology.
I previously uploaded posts on GCSE revision. If it helps you then great! But I'm not an expert on anything AT ALL so don't rely on everything I post.
(Also, I'm not taking credit for any of the pictures or info here, it's all off google images, notes from BBC bitesize and CGP revision guides, textbooks etc)

(NB - GCSE: italics in the science subjects are things that are only in paper 2!)

RELIGION AND LIFE 

1 - BELIEVING IN GOD 

Design argument - 

For - 

  • The way the universe works makes it look as if it has been designed 
  • Anything that has been designed needs a designer - world would need a designer 
  • Only possible designer would be God 
  • Evidence the world has been designed (laws of science - gravity and magnetism, DNA as blueprint for life, evolution etc.) 
Against - 
  • Designer would't have created volcanoes, earthquakes etc. 
  • Science can explain appearance of design without a God involved 
  • Doesn't explain dinosaurs being part of the world etc. 
  • Would only prove designer, not necessarily God
