Test questions were: Barbour's four-fold typology, the definitions of biblical literalism, natural theology, theology of nature, the Anthropic Principle, and Wu Li; a discussion of the "Eastern" mind and the ways in which it might be said to be more compatible with quantum mechanics, the Copenhagen interpretation, a brief explanation of either special or general relativity (which I couldn't quite resolve, at first, but finally remembered enough about what made special relativity special to tackle it), and finally, a synopsis of the two guest speakers we had come in during the quarter.

All in all, it was ok. I was not nearly as confident about the Taoism stuff, but I think I managed. A's would be nice.
