Is the soul not on the spec for our year? We have learnt about it in class
We never did it last year, only briefly. I managed to get a C on philosophy and an A in ethics and got a B overall with one mark off an A which is why im resitting but when i've put snippets in from A2 i've got more marks in practise papers so maybe we needed to know it. idk
The predictions are Plato, Ontological, Religion and Science (Intelligent Design) and Problem of Evil... The first two I would love but I'm not sure on the other two. What are you all thinking?

I think everyone will go for the first two if true, meaning it's harder to score as high. I think I'd have a crack at PofE and Plato depending on the question and how narrow it is

I do not understand the idea behind this- an a grade answer is an a grade answer. The exam is not UMS based, surely it won't matter?
how would you answer the question 'theres no solution to problem of evil and suffering' (10 marks),really struggling with counter argument with why there is a solution

I'm not sure? I've always been told by my subject teachers that they take a certain percentage of pupils for each grade. I suppose the way it works is that they have to justify how one piece of work gets one extra mark than another, and then they base the grade boundaries on how many pupils. I'm not sure, just going by what ive been told Suppose we all wrote an A grade answer in the exam, they couldn't reward everybody with an A, if that makes sense? And my teacher said they mark your answer to whatever question you do alongside others of this question to justify your mark. I suppose on that basis it might work? Not too sure though!
Can someone summarise Hume's criticisms of the cosmological argument? Thank you!
-Cannot assume effect from cause. If I hail a bus to stop, the idea that it stops because I raised my hand is absurd. There can be many other reasons why it stopped - Fallacy of composition- just because we see cause and effect, does not mean the universe is caused - Why can the universe not be necessary instead of God? - Why can there be no infinite cause and effect? - Even if we accept to the argument, it still does not point to a JC God

I wish the best of luck to you and hope that you understand that 'bad' results do not determine your worth when school expects people with different abilities to learn the same thing at the same speed.
