but I love Bible.Its my favorite subject.
A pastor at least should be able to read the Texts in the Original languages.
Do the seminaries of our world teach truth????? Most do not.
My husband relates his experience as the time he went to cemetary..lol...
He spent most to the time arguing with the professors that the Bible was for today. Many told him that when he received his own doctorate degree then he too could determine what was the Word of God. Sad but true!!!!!

What is this "truth" you speak of? Do you mean, "do they agree with me on everything? Most don't."
The cemetery joke is and old and tired one, and usually told by people who've never been there.
The fact that he approached Bible school as a place to argue with professors shows how he viewed his "learning" process. His experience certainly has not been my own, and for major papers, I've disagreed often with my professors -- though, like any higher learning center, you must disagree with thoughtful, clear argumentation. Most of my professors appreciated disagreement if it met that criteria!
One doesn't need a PhD to know truth. One should have a degree if they are correcting another language expert who does have one in something technical, where it's clear who the expert is.
