Thanks Pilgrim - the reason I ask is because the Roman Catholic apologists and sworn enemies of Dr. James White claim his doctorate is bogus...coming from CES.
Whether or not White's degree is "bogus" or not would depend upon one's definition of the term. Granted, with what I know of Columbia Evangelical Seminary, I personally wouldn't put much credence on it either, but I would be very hesitant to call it "bogus", which to me means "phony", i.e., obtained through nefarious means, e.g., identity theft or one purchased on the Internet! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/giggle.gif" alt="" />

However, I would guess that these RC "apologists'" intent is to discredit White and thus as a result his arguments which he has set forth against the Roman State Church and its doctrines. It is unfortunate today, that even in many Reformed denominations/groups a "degree" has become akin to Aaron's "Golden Calf". In regard to James White, it isn't a matter of what degree(s) he holds or lack of them, but rather are his arguments truth, precise, profound and cogent. IMHO, the bulk of his apologetic against the RCC are exactly that and thus since the RC "apologists" can't offer anything to disprove those arguments, they have resorted to ad hominem attacks. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/rolleyes2.gif" alt="" />
