[35 marks] The term “religious language” refers to statements or claims made about God or gods‚ the debate over the meaning of religious language is one that is very controversial. One philosopher to join this debate and present a theory on religious language was Wittgenstein.

Some people refer God as the Omnipotent‚ that is to say a being that has unlimited power‚ and is able to do everything. God has four different attributes‚ he is omniscient‚ simple‚ eternal and omnipotent. The latter raises some difficulties‚ and paradoxes.

In “Why Does God Allow Evil” Richard Swinburne argues that evil exists in the world because of the existence of a good‚ omnipotent God. His strongest argument is that there is a difference between moral evil and natural evil and each are necessary for the world’s good.

If all the testimonies to religious experiences are taken into account‚ then this would certainly add weight to religious experience as proof of the existence of God. Swinburne concludes his work with the cumulative argument and believes that when the arguments are considered in isolation of the others they don’t prove God‚ but put together‚ they make an overwhelming argument which cannot be denied in the grand scales of
