    I haven't the slightest clue what that means. Can you give me an example of a job for that degree? Besides teaching it I guess.

    Re: I got my PhD today

    Basically it is a theology degree with a specialty. It is mostly good for teaching religion or theology, but also can be used with think tanks (if you are lucky) or advising on ethical issues. Some people use the religion and science angle to work in bioethics, but I don't really specialize in that .

    Basically my electrical engineering degree from ISU is still more marketable :) .

    I thought religion was ordered to remain at least 500 feet from science at all times a few years back....

    With a pitch like that, who wouldn't say yes

    He could say he took a shot in the dark. Or someone took a shot in the dark at him.
