Theology degrees, at least in the Catholic tradition, survey various religions, but include extensive coursework in the study of God and His relationship to His creation.

Usually they are only earned at the graduate level.

There might be a whole course on explaining the effect of graCe on man’s soul, and another just on creation.

In Catholicism, at least, these are upper level courses that incorporate Scripture, Church traditions, and history.

Just as legal principles are applied to specific situations in law school, theological principles are applied to specific actions in theology classes.

Religion is broader, less precise, and can encompass lots of survey classes, and are generally less difficult and covered at the undergraduate level.

Academically, there is a big difference between a major in religion and a degree in theology.

I do not know if all this applies in Baptist schools, but perhaps the training is very different for different religions.

That may explain the vastly different perceptions on Huckabee’s assertiions.

How, then, does Hugh disagree with Huckabee? Seems according to you that their stances are identical.

Cool down on the calling me a “liar” thing. Can we not have a conversation without you bringing it to an abrupt close by calling me a “liar.” That’s a pretty desperate rhetorical technique. Perhaps a good night’s sleep helped you a bit.

Catholic does not equal Baptist.

Huck will take Iowa and he will fight hard to stay in the race down the stretch...his views on a lot of things are drastically different than Billy's

I suppose you’ve identified yourself with my previous statement. Thanks for continueing to make my point.
Only, one of your quotes can be attributed to me. However, that shouldn’t get in your way. It’s difficult and fruitless to have a reasonable exchanges with the unreasonable. Theo is not a Huckabee supporter like myself, yet was calling for simple honesty. Just look at responses he received. I'm sure you'll view my lack of response to your perceived Huckabee record as a victory. Folks like yourself seem to own FR now. Hoping that changes.

Arkansas Ping!

Anyone who gives the 3rd world dictatorship Mexico a $1.2 million consulate behind the backs of the people in his state does not follow lead by the Bible. It doesn't matter what degree he has!

Jesus stood up to the corrupt, Huckabee rewards them!
