Motivation Motivation is the reason or reasons for engaging in a particular behavior. Motivated - provided with a motive or given incentive for action. Faith Belief that is not based on proof. The obligation of loyalty or fidelity to a person, promise, engagement, etc.

Natural Theology Plato + Aristotle Judaism and Christianity St. Augustine Anselm of Canterbury - Ontological Argument Thomas Aquinas Modern views Descartes David Hume Immanuel Kant

Motivation for Belief Psychologically The self ~ different views on the self can lead to different views on Who or What created the Self. Determinism ~ We make decisions or are they made for us?

The self and Religion Plato- Reason, Physical appetite, Spirit Descartes – Cartesian Dualism Empiricists – Locke, Hume (experiences) Kant – A different type of empiricist Buddhists – 5 parts Materialism - Science

Freedom and Morality Hard Determinist – Everything is predetermined, you have no choices. Soft Determinist – Some Decisions are compromised by outside effects. Indeterminist – “Condemned to be free” : everything is your choice.

Post – Modern views of Faith Jehovah’s witnesses Atheism Judeo-Christian/ Muslim Beliefs Where do you see religion in 2100.
