Philosophy of Religion (V7069)

15 credits, Level 4

Spring teaching

On this module, you’ll engage with traditional debates in contemporary philosophy of religion, including:

  • arguments for the existence of God
  • the problem of evil
  • the nature of religious knowledge.

You’ll also engage with less traditional and often-overlooked topics, from feminist philosophy of religion, to humanism, to the question of whether different religions can be understood as worshipping the same God.

You’ll develop an understanding of the importance of different perspectives for human flourishing.
