How was it


Interesting paper.

The a. type questions were
1. Outline three reasons why natural evil causes problems for Christians
2. Outline three Christian beliefs about gender discrimination
3. Outline three ways in which Christians celebrate holy week
4. Outline three Christian beliefs about the origins and values of human life

The b. type questions were
1. Explain two Christian beliefs about atonement
2. Explain two reasons why family planning is important for Christians
3. Explain two reasons why sacraments are important for Christians
4. Explain two reasons why stewardship is important for Christians

The c. type questions were a bit strange- they seemed to be ones where sources of wisdom were not really relevent or tricky to find.

Here are the c. type questions
1. Explain two Christian arguments against non-religious arguments against life after death
2. Explain two ways in which the local church helps families
3. Explain two reasons why evangelical work is important for Christians
4. Explain two reasons why the sanctity of life is important for Christians

The d. type questions seemed ok but not enough space was provided (I needed 4 additional answers sheets).

The 12/15 markers were (correct me if I am wrong):
1. "The biblical account of creation is metaphorical"
2. "Sexual relationships should only take place within marriage"
3. "Christians should all worship in the same way"
4. "Abortion is always wrong"

Please correct me if I am wrong!

What did you put??

also the a question was about gender equality. d was on about having sex within marriage.

living the muslim life, a) was about why the ten obligatory acts are important to shias. The c question was on two benefits of hajj. d question was on fasting being valuable

matters of life and death a) what paradise is like c) muslim responses to non religious arguments against life after death. the d question was “Allah created all living things”

sorry. i’ve forgotten a lot of the questions XD
