Hello

The ontological argument has been asked every year since 2010, I was wondering if it was mandatory that it is asked every year by Edexcel or if it was just a coincidence?
I'm also interested to see your predictions for what will be on this years paper on the 10th of June. Thanks

It think religious experience and ontological could maybe combine? That is what my teacher was saying

Hello

My teacher says ontological literally comes up every year and the variance is whether religious experience or critiques of religious belief is the second question. As a safe bet it's best to revise ontological argument and then one of the other two.

I'm so confused as to whether to revise critiques of religious beliefs, I'm doing religious experience and religious language for philosophy, but critiquesof religious beliefs has only come up a couple of times. I'm not sure what to do

I would revise ontological and critiques, just in case critiques doesn't come up

I'm not too keen on ontological so I chose to do religious experience instead, what do you think the chances of a religious experience question is likely to come up?

Well, ontological has come up every year whereas the other two have alternated with religious experience coming up more often than religious critiques. So if you're not fond of the ontological argument then revise for religious critiques and religious experience just in case.

It's in the afternoon
All the questions in the ethical theory section give you more than one theory to choose to write about

I have no idea because last year's exam allowed you to choose one of the three theories rather than the usual two

I'm more worried about the philosophy section tbh

For philosophy I'm doing either atheism and critiques of religious belief or religious experience and religious language. So much to remember :l
