Week 8
In my opinion Religion is a type of philosophy. Philosophy always challenges the mind to think about thinks we probably will never know if they are true or not and so does religion. For example as a Catholic I believe in God. There will probably never be real proof of that but its something I choose to believe. There are many things in religion that are argued about every day. Charles Darwin came up with his theory of evolution. This goes against what Catholics are suppose to believe. We are suppose to believe that Adam and Eve created us and this is why we are here today, but now we are hearing about us coming from monkeys? Philosophers have to think about this constantly. I think Charles Darwin made many people start questioning Christianity. All this time we were thinking we came from Adam and Eve but now there are other ideas of were we came from. In Philosophical terms faith has no role. But as a Christian you need faith to believe the things you do.
