Ats a real good portrayal a this problem, Cojak. Ya got folk what thinks their life experience warrants a doctorate. You know, I've tied my shoes all my life so I have earned this degree via life experience.So, a preacher boy writes a few good sermons, starts a kids ministry in his church, has a few good revivals, an they think them life experiences are as valid in gittin a bachelor of arts degree as the feller who disciplined hisself, done the work, an earned the degree. Then, ya add to the life experiences, an a feller thinks he is worthy of a master of arts of master of divinity degree based on life experience. An the real funny one is at the docteral level. A feller plays the political game, is elected to a position within the denomination, an some think that warrants a docter of divinity based on life experience.
