could you talk about Descartes and Gaunilo when doing Anselm's argumnt??
no i find religious language really hard and confusing! might do some of body soul but my main are the ontological and problem of evil.
what about you??
i think with Gaunillo you could make reference to at the end, but Descartes is another argument. Just keep it simple -

is this correct for Alvin Platinga 'Possible Worlds" which supports Ontological Argument:
- Alvin Platinga developed the notion of possible worlds
- He offers the description of a possible world where there exists a being with 'maximal greatness'.
- A being can only have 'maximal greatness' if it exists in all possible worlds.
- However, this does not mean God, as Platinga maintained that for a being to be maximally great, it must exist within all possible worlds.
- According to Davis, even if we accept that there exists a being with maximal greatness, and therefore this being has the possibility to exists in our world, this does not mean that this being actually exists.
- Therefore, all that is signifiant within Platinga's response is the element possibility. Platinga argues that a being with 'maximal greatness is possible'.
- Therefore God is possible.
-maximal greatness entails maximal excellence
-maximal excellence entails omnitpotence, omniscience and moral perfection.
therefore
-there is a possible world in whcih there is a being that is maximally great.
- it has maximal excellence
-if omnipoetent, omniscience and morally perfect, and maximally great, it is exsitent in our world
-therefore, there is a God. -

you could also say that Plantinga introduces the idea of 'maximal excllence'. he states that
-maximal greatness entails maximal excellence
-maximal excellence entails omnitpotence, omniscience and moral perfection.
therefore
-there is a possible world in whcih there is a being that is maximally great.
- it has maximal excellence
-if omnipoetent, omniscience and morally perfect, and maximally great, it is exsitent in our world
-therefore, there is a God. -

there is so much

- A being can only have 'maximal greatness' if it exists in all possible worlds.
- However, this does not mean God, as Platinga maintained that for a being to be maximally great, it must exist within all possible worlds.
- Plantinga introduced the idea of “maximal excellence” which entails all the omnis and moral perfection Therefore:
- There is a possible world in which there is a being that is maximally great
- If it's maximally great this being must exist in our world
- This being has maximal greatness so it must also have maximal excellence
- According to Davis, even if we accept that there exists a being with maximal greatness, and therefore this being has the possibility to exists in our world, this does not mean that this being actually exists.
- Therefore, all that is signifiant within Platinga's response is the element possibility. Platinga argues that a being with 'maximal greatness is possible'.
- Therefore the God of classical theism is possible.

it would make sense for them to do Soul making, because i don't think they have actually asked about Hick by itself, like they have done with the other theodicies -

Outline the concepts of natural evil and moral evil and explain how process thought responds to the problem of evil.
However, you never. AQA seems to hate me, so they will give me all the hard questions -

For the Ethics paper (RST4C Moral-Decision Making),is it possible that this question can come up:
"Examine the ethical issues raised when using [telelogical/deontological/hybrid ethical systems] to make moral decisions" rather than asking about the ethical issues arising from areas of medical research?
Or would this question be too alike to an A02 question?
And if it were likely to come up what would we discuss? -
