BTW anybody who is wondering what S.T.B stands for (it's the initials he chooses to have follow his name) He has a bachelors in Theology.

Ha! Seriously? So I could put S.T.B. behind my name and try to look all cool, too?

Thanks, was wondering what STB meant. So he (or his folks) deleted your comment? I noticed that the ratings were disabled on YouTube, not something one usually does.

I'm pretty sure that the S.T.B. is a European designation from their colleges. I know a guy who has an S.T.D. which is the equivalent of a PhD in Theology in the states. But yeah I'm with Jason, if you just have your bachelor's, adding letters after your name makes you look dumb.

He has every right to be there. Someone high up obviously does not like him.

Nobody is restricting him from being there. WYD is stating that his talks aren't an official WYD event.

Just fyi- even though it says "Bachelors" it's typically a graduate-level degree.

While acceptance to an S.T.B. programme always requires at least two prior years' undergraduate study of philosophy, as well as knowledge of the Latin and Greek languages, in the United States a completed undergraduate degree is generally required for admission to an S.T.B. programme. Thus it is roughly equivalent academically to an [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_of_Divinity"]M.Div.[/url] (although the S.T.B. has a more academic focus while the M.Div. has a more pastoral focus), and the two are sometimes granted together.

Carry on.

Voris is really good at telling at telling people who already believe X all about how X is correct. Preaching to the choir is not hard to do.
