Logical problem
intended to show a logical contradiction within theism
Evidential problem
,Give this one a try later!
the actual evil in the world seems to indicate that God probably doesn't
exist
What caused God?
Give this one a try later!
God is necessary, not contingent therefore God does not need an
explanation of cause
Natural Evil
Give this one a try later!
evil that comes. about as the result of natural processes in the world;
someone is injured in a tornado, or suffers from a genetic disease
Most substance dualists are interactionists
Give this one a try later!
they believe that the mental and the physical substances in the person
interact with one another causally
, Functionalism Physicalism
Give this one a try later!
asserts that mental states exist, because the existence of mental states
function a certain way; explain behavior
Paradox of the Stone
Give this one a try later!
Can God create a stone that he can't lift? If the answer is 'no', then God
cannot create the stone. If the answer is 'yes', then God cannot lift the
stone. So either way, it seems, there is something God cannot do. If there is
something God can't do, then God isn't omnipotent.
If it can have any possible function, there is no___?

Give this one a try later!
- If God does not exist, objective moral values and duties do not exist
- Objective moral values and duties do exist
