This contains a fully resourced, differentiated lesson on how the problem of evil can be seen by some to challenge the existence of God. The main part of the lesson involves a brief section of note-taking and class discussion on the basic idea behind the problem of evil, with students suggesting their own solutions to the inconsistent triad (logical problem), followed by a written comprehension exercise on the evidential problem. The lesson concludes with a brainstorming exercise on the strengths and weaknesses of Swinburne’s Free Will Defence and class continuum on its success in resolving the problem of evil.
Learning Objectives:
To explain the logical and evidential problem as a challenge to the existence of God.
To assess one philosophical response to the problem.
To evaluate the success of this response.
