Subject: Please help me cheat.
August 16, 2022

Dear Nikola,

I hope that you are well.

A final examination in a course on Theology and Physics includes the question:

1) Compare the credibility of the assertions of Schrödingers Equation with the credibility of the Nicene Creed. List the implications of Schrödingers Equation for the structure and function of the electromagnetic field and explain for each implication whether and why its credibility is greater, less or equal to each of the 39 assertions of the Nicene Creed.

2) Describe and discuss the social and psychological forces which compel assent to, or dissent from, respectively the Equation and the Creed cited above.

I don't have the answers. Thank you for any help that you can give me. I accept the risk that Attorney General Garland will prosecute me for cheating.

Not to proselytize, but for reference only:

The Nicene Creed

I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.

I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
