This course addresses some of the big questions that face human beings like: What is the purpose of my life? What am I? How should I live? And why should I do what is right? Is there a God? And if so, what sort of God might that be? If you are the type of person who is accused of thinking too much, if Google can’t answer your questions, and if you like spending time wondering whether your real life is the one in your dreams and that you are reading this in your sleep, then this course might be for you. The course aims to take these problems seriously and attempt to find real answers to them by attempting to apply rigorous logic, finding the right types of evidence, and evaluating possible approaches. It is not about sharing opinions; it is about the meticulous analysis of the problem and scrupulous attention to detail. Philosophy of Religion & Ethics is recognized as a respected entrance qualification by all universities, and employers are aware that it helps to develop an individual’s ability to communicate, work with others, and solve complex problems. Given the emphasis on ethics in this course, it might be useful for those considering careers in law or medicine.
You should be able to offer at least GCSE grade 6 in English Language and at least grade 6 in Mathematics plus at least three other GCSEs at grade 4 and above. It is not a requirement to have taken Religious Studies or PRE at GCSE. You will need to be a confident reader, able to write fluently and have good factual recall. Above all you should have a real interest in the subject.
