Write a 1-3 page (250-750 words, double-spaced) critical reflection on the place of logical argumentation in discussions of religion as you understand it. What is the relevance of formal, logical argument to religion and religious beliefs and faith in general? Is logic relevant at all? Is there any role for βproofβ and βdisproofβ where religion is concerned? In other words, does rational, formal, logical argument have a place in discussions of religion and religious concerns? If so, why? If not, why not? If both, explain what you mean. If you canβt decide, explain your ambivalence a few things to remember as you compose your piece: 1) You must talk explicitly about at least two of the arguments weβve considered. 2) Once again, follow Kantβs advice. Your essay should be about what you think β not what you think you should think, or what you think I think you should think… 3) Your audience is not a professor or some other potential critic. You are addressing your curious, thoughtful friend. 4) If you would like to step away from standard essay form, you may write a dialogue. If you choose this option, just make sure you do not write a fake dialogue, a monologue masquerading as a dialogue. Write a dialogue, an exchange of ideas between two interlocutors, with some real back-and-forth. 5) Proofread. Proofread. Proofread. Read your essay aloud, and listen. It really helps.
