David, can I ask why you would recommend this?

Sure, as long as Google doesn't stop posting my messages. < wink >

If the purpose of getting another degree is to increase his income,
I'm not sure another undergrad degree, except maybe in engineering
or

business, will do that.

In fact, those are actually the areas I would recommend, but Jason
said something about getting one in science, if I understood him
correctly.

If it's for some other purpose, like building his ministry and
continuing to debate people, then I guess it's reasonable.

I think the former would be reasonable, the latter an exercise in
foolishness, but it's not like Jason hasn't engaged in THOSE before.

At any rate, I think you are absolutely right and that a degree in
business or engineering - or even information technology, since
Jason clearly has an interest in that area - would be better
choices for career and employment enhancement opportunities.

Yes, IT is an even better suggestion that didn't occur to me. Good
thinking. He would breeze through much of the coursework at this
point I imagine.

Probably. And if that were the choice, there are simply too many ways
to do it to allow any excuse-making as to why it DIDN'T get done.

That and business.

Oh, and I love children - and that little Jordan is adorable! She
deserves the best, so her dad needs to go do something about that!

I agree that little girl is extremely cute! I'm a sucker for kids
that age.

Me, too.

The next time Jason wants to know why I didn't pursue him more
aggressively when I was still in California, all he needs to do is
look at that little angel.

Found her quite by accident while checking out her old man's 60,000
web pages.

Good thing she doesn't look like her father!
Then again, none of my kids do, either, thank God!

Why don't you admit you have no working knowledge of Hebrew? It is
obvious that you don't (see the example about pi.)

I have taken a Hebrew course and studied it on my own. I know some
Hebrew, but I'm not perfect in it.

"Not perfect" is an understatement.

And why the dickens do you think, with your one course in Hebrew, that
you can presume to lecture or teach on the subject.

<snip >

After I earn my Ph.D. in Biblical Studies, I may pursue an M.A. (or
equivalent) in a scientific field of study. I'm not sure where I
will go, yet. Can you recommend a good program in San Diego or a
good distance learning program?

Now THAT'S more like it, though I would advise against presuming to go
after a master's without the requisite bachelor's in the field.
You'll get hammered with academic deficiencies and if you take them
as a master's student, you'll pay the graduate level tuition - or
tuition in lieu of fees as is common in the California State
University system.

Having said THAT, I'll suggest you consider a second bachelor's from
San Diego State.

Your first degree is from there - you already have the general ed
knocked out (except probably the math) and so you can get right into
the curriculum.

One of your old "friends" can tell you that a biology program at San
Diego State is pretty rigorous, but at least you'd learn something.

Since you have Sarine and Jordan to worry about, a better idea might
be some program through Excelsior College or Charter Oak State
College.

www.excelsior.edu

www.cosc.edu

They offer non-resident degrees through a rather interesting
mechanism. You go to ACCREDITED courses whereever you can get them,
and though it is overly simple to say this, as long as you complete
basically the same coursework as you would if you were full-time,
in-residence, you can come out with bachelor's degree in pretty much
any academic discipline you can think of.

So you can go over to Grossmont Community College or City College and
get the basic biology and chemistry knocked out. Then you can take
some courses at SDSU as a non-matriculated student, as well as some
combination of correspondence and web-based courses from most any
school in the country.

I have friends who have done it this way. That's how I know.

Then, voila! A bachelor's degree.

You'll work your ***** off - probable more than if you had attended as a
traditional student.

Oh, and if you take science at a secular university, lose the chip on
your shoulder, or as sure as I'm a 70-year old Jewish lawyer, either
some of the smarter students or the instructors will knock it off for
you.

I'm torn between getting my Masters from a secular university or a
Christian one.

Jason, you're 30 years old. You have a wife and child to support.
Make a decision.

For me, grad school was right after colege and just me and my
horse, living in sin with my boyfriend. ;) )

I imagine this may be your callous way of addressing my full and

Of course it is. It addresses EVERY assertion in the SAB.

from the project was based on the work of others.

Volume isn't the deciding factor. Everyone who has given a reason

purchase of my book has cited the book and not necessarily the

the reason for their purchase.

If this is what you're talking about, then the answer is
simple.

Well, there's no surprise THERE!

I worked very long and hard to write my rebuttal and engine the
CD-ROM,

I'm not surprised at that, either, Jason, for whatever values of
"long" and "hard" you might wish to apply.

And then there's the issue of competence. I can work long and

too, to rebuild an automobile engine, but it still won't run,

I don't know how to do it.

You had neither the competence nor the education and knowledge to

off a full-fledged "rebuttal" or "refutation" of the SAB. I've
already illustrated several episodes in which you either did not
actually address the "error" you presumed to "correct," or you
actually affirmed that there IS error, or you glossed over the

I disagree. I've received no complaints from the people who have

copies of my book.

I haven't seen any scholarly rebuttal from you. If you have one,

to post it here.

I intend to continue those illustrations in the week and months to
come.

Seeing that you are admittedly not a Bible scholar, I couldn't see

anyone would anticipate this from you. Your expertise is gossip,

and attempted defamation.

Why did you move to Europe? Is it because someone was considering

suit against you regarding your behavior in America? Based on what

Not at all. We have a number of supporters,

a Board of Directors,

two paid employees,

25,000 subscribers on our mailing list, etc.

I mean, REALLY, Jason, you're not fooling anyone with this claim.
Shall we go into the finances of JCSM and cover where the money

from and where it goes?

No. WE won't. I have no desire to discuss these things with you for
obvious reasons. If you didn't know how to criticize, complain, and

to defame, you wouldn't know how to do anything.

Conversely, 100% of Steve Wells' CD sales go into his

And even more conversely, he deserves that, since his hard work is
fairly obvious.

don't have to.

If you're going to make these kinds of comparisons, don't go

It's plain and simple. Money from my hard work goes to benefit

Money from his hard work goes to benefit himself.

I hope this clears up any misunderstanding on this subject. It seems
that some think I was afraid of a lawsuit due to a recent trademark
registration by Reggie Finley. Rest assured, I didn't even verify his
claim of trademark registration, nor do I care to, because I was happy
to transfer this domain name without threats of recourse.

This will be my one and only post on this subject. If any wish to
