For my MCCC Philosophy of Religion Students:
Your 10-minute oral exams will be on Main Campus, Room A-153.
Our textbook is Philosophy of Religion: Selected Readings, by Peterson, Hasker, et. al.
1. Anselm's Ontological Argument for the Existence of God. In Peterson, pp. 169-170.
2. Gaunilo's Criticism of the Ontological Argument; + our counter-criticisms [(a) contingent things do not have an intrinsic maximum; (b) "greatness," when it comes to contingent things, is subjective.] In Peterson, pp. 171-173.
3. Kant's Criticism of the Ontological Argument; + Malcolm's Response.
4. The Kalam Cosmological Argument for the Existence of God. By William Lane Craig. In Peterson, pp. 197 ff.
5. The Fine-Tuning Argument for the Existence of God. Robin Collins's essay is found here. Scroll down to #4 - "God, Design, and Fine-Tuning."
6. The Moral Argument for God's Existence. By William Lane Craig. Craig's essay is: The Indispensability of Theological Meta-Ethical Foundations for Morality. You have to register (for free) at his website to access this.
