I administered the final examination in my Philosophy of Religion course this morning. The final multiple-choice question (of 25) asked the students whether I (Keith) am a theist, an atheist, or an agnostic. Everyone got credit for it. Guess how it came out?
- Theist (defined as someone who believes that God exists): 12.
- Atheist (defined as someone who believes that God does not exist): 2.
- Agnostic (defined as someone who neither believes that God exists nor believes that God does not exist): 13.
I'm proud of this. If the students didn't know at the end of the semester what my own beliefs are, then I must have been fair in my presentation of the arguments and criticisms.
