You forgot that when someone finds Jesus they automatically become an expert in every single field of human knowledge, they may not have the bits of paper, but they are experts nonetheless! I had a thread on this a few years ago but cannot find it now, it was entitled something like 'forget university, find the Lord' I think, and it is basically arguing that why bother putting all the years of hard graft at uni if you can find Jesus and become an expert in everything.But, seriously, there may be something a bit sinister going on here. Take Revhugger there as an example. Now, to the average punter he preaches to I would imagine that the Rev talks a good game, the amateur astronomer, the 'impressive' M.A. in Christian Theology will probably give him a lot of credence in the circles that he moves in, yet we know most of what he says is essentially incorrect, but how many of his flock and friends would question his arguments? Probably none, so we have his immediate flock sucking all this misinformation in because it sounds impressive and a man of revs credentials cannot possibly be wrong, then they tell others who are similarly impressed and the ignorance spreads.One thing I have noticed about this type of know-it-all Christian is that if they stumble upon a convincing sound-bite then it spreads like wildfire throughout their social circles, even though the sound-bite is usually incorrect.There are thousands of Revhuggers out there, all spreading incorrect information that they have not bothered to reserch for themselves, or have researched it and know that it is wrong, but it wont stop them telling others so that their ego can have a little massage.It's as if you need some kind of logic bypass to follow this particular brand of Christianity, I have no idea what the driving force behind it is. maybe it's money, or fame, or a genuine belief that they are doing God's work.
