| I plan on doing so. I already have two targeted for this. I'm glad you included the dissertation clause. I also want to know the length of the dissertation.But I was wondering by asking this question, would I be responsible for any additional falsehoods tied to their degree? |

| Being old, a HS dropout and a has been preacher, I really don't care where the DD comes from. If it is obvious the man is educated, I will accept him at his word.Mind you, I know a Dr, who is not legit, and it is obvious cause he cannot put a logical sentence together and thinks ain't is proper Kentucky English.But really, if a man is ignorant, and tacks a DD on his name, no matter what I say, he will still believe he is a DD! (the danged paper/sheepskin says so!) Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

| The horselaughable thing bout it is that them what say they don't care, it don't matter, it aint a issue......................... if it was THEIR dentist, or THEIR neurologist, or THEIR cardiologist, they would git to carin real quick. But no, its just a preacher who is representing the living God, so it don't matter if he is unethical an lackin in integrity. |

| Lets face it old timer.Some of those guys with the easy doctorates think everyone worked as hard for theirs as they did.A couple of papers, 595 dollars, and they are a Dr. They think the rest of you did the same thing |

| Having an accredited, earned doctorate (which I do respect) demonstrates that one has a good degree of intelligence and perseverance in a specialized area of study. Such a one's ideas in that particular area of specialty do indeed deserve appropriate respect. That said, earning a PhD, ThD, EdD or DMin in no way confers infallibility. It seems to me that many of us common folk mistakenly think a person with an earned, accredited doctorate is to be regarded as a virtually unquestionable authority. He has an earned doctorate; he obviously must be right about this. |
