    Are there any PhD's in athiesm? Oh, that's right, there are none. My bad.

    It seems that only those of faith take the time and energy to get educated as to what various theologies are trying to teach us. My bad. ๐Ÿ˜€

    Well, in most countries, research degrees are funded and students nonetheless have teaching or assistant research responsibilities in the faculty. A PhD in short is a job.
    Getting a PhD is a way to show that you are willing and able to do grunt work for the benefit of your superiors, and that the only motivation you require is the hope that you will someday be one of them.

    Cheers guys for the good wishes and all; moreover, as I said; it's just going to be a lengthy sabbatical whilst I get my head together - I will be back - atheistic as ever! >>:]

    As for the PhD that I'm going for I'm applying to get a scholarship in the numerical analysis group at manchester (school of mathematics); otherwise I'll just reintroduce myself the the world of work that I left behind four years ago to do my MMATH degree and then try again next year.

    Proper Knob and Divegeester: Once my plans and living arrangements are sorted I'll send you both a message with regards to a meet up - would be good if others turned up also but I don't know who else (would you be up for something like that Robbie Carrobie?) lives in the UK.

    This will be my last response on these forums for now.
