Of course I am a nobody, but there were several in attendance that were in enrolled in doctoral programs themselves...

Bernard I am sure could afford quite a few other options out there ....

Not sure how many Oneness papers they get.

Would add credibility if the paper had to be presented and defended.

Sure, but again it's speculation to assume DKB was exempted

I can afford a new Mercedes yet my Honda minivan works just fine.

Any reason you can think of that they would be so much cheaper?

Maybe smaller number of faculty members when you just do a Thesis?

Only takes 2 years?

Those might be factors.

"The Doctor of Philosophy program will take 4 to 7 years to complete, depending on how long the student takes to complete the dissertation. Coursework can usually be finished in 2.5 - 3.5 years."

As I said, I understand that. My point has been and still is that this is not akin to a degree mill.

I never said you did say he did.

I think it's clearly obvious to everyone that he did not go through what he would have to to get a PHd from an American school. That is beside my point though

You needed an F350 to do the job in theology that he wants to be considered great at, and he went and bought a used Chevy Luv.
