Problem of Evil - WHOLE UNIT! (A-Level OCR)

(1)
This resource covers the Problem of Evil unit taught in the A-level RS AQA specification. I do have another resource covering OCR which may be more helpful if that is your exam board! This covers the whole unit, including a PowerPoint and a work booklet which matches identically to reinforce student-led learning. It covers key topics such as the logical problem of evil and the inconsistent triad, with theodicies offered by Augustine, Irenaeus and Hick, such as the soul-making theodicy. It also explores key questions, such as whether the logical or evidential aspects of the problem of evil are more challenging for belief and overall whether monotheism can be defended in the face of evil. It is all ready to go - can just pick up and teach. If you do like this resource, please leave a rating and a review. Happy teaching!
