section should be based on the study of ONE religion only.
How

support belief in God. The nature of religious experience as seen in the NUMINOUS,
CONVERSION, MIRACLES,
PRAYER, and how these may lead to or support belief in
God. |

appearance of the world (DESIGN
and CAUSATION) may lead to or
support belief in God. How the search for meaning and purpose in life may lead
to or support belief in God. How the presence of religion in the world may lead
to or support belief in God.
How
non-religious explanations of the world and of miracles may lead to or support AGNOSTICISM
or ATHEISM. How unanswered prayers and the existence of evil and
suffering (including MORAL EVIL and NATURAL EVIL) may lead people
to question or reject belief in God.
Why,
the existence of evil and suffering raises problems for people who believe in
God as OMNIPOTENT, BENEVOLENT and OMNISCIENT. How the followers of
ONE religion respond to this problem.
