That's a good question: In what ways do a college president's educational choices, a theologian's educational choices matter to others?

Why does education matter at all?
Maxi, are you a part of the UPC?

I bet you're not.

Knowing this, why do you even care about his education? I don't really think you do. You're just wanting to gnash at him a bit.

Why do you care?

Are you really concerned about the education of the GS of the UPC, or are you only using this to point out how intellectually superior you and your new religious buddies are?

I didn't hold off on the name for theatrics I did it so that what is happening now wouldn't happen. Oh it is DKB it must be a good school.

So you say he has cheated even though you've admitted that every one of his degrees are 100% legit. Okay.

Did I say cheated?

No the reality is that is your judgment based on the fact that it doesn't stand up to a US earned PhD.

ROFL

You did it for dramatic effect.

Just like you posted on the LS thread that a bombshell much more damaging was coming.

This is like sparkler, not a howitzer round.

How do you figure?

South Africa University compares to Gordon-Conwell, Loyola, Regent, Graduate Theological Union, Oral Roberts, Yale Divinity, Assembly of God Theological Seminary, Master's College... even Urshan Graduate??

That's a value statement? How much of a stretch are we making here?

Seems he is above questioning in the minds of some.
You are obsessed with tearing down Oneness Pentecostalism, and this is just the latest little tool from your A.C.M.E. bag of tricks. All puff and no smoke.
