Maybe I am reaching here, I probably am, but there it seems that once you become good at pretending to be religious on the outside, the "props" just seems to come easier as well...
Just a thought.

Interesting, but I think it's indeed a stretch to say those teaching dress standards and behavior standards are somehow more prone to touting unearned degrees. Conservative "holiness" groups aside, it appears these degree mills have flourished in society at large.
I actually believe a case could be made, that a large portion of the so-called "Holiness" groups view degrees and education in it's entirety with skepticism.
