Having just read this I will make some quick comments :-)*p*It really sounds like this is suited only for a college or grad student / seminary type of setting.  Not for the common Celt on the street.*p*The first set of requirements will eliminate most people - especially*br*the 27 credits of philosophy - and personally I dont like the psychological examination - I just dont believe in them, but that is just me.*p*To be honest a lot of this cant be accomplished easily, if at*br*all, by those who have to work for a living.  You cant take the summer*br*off if you have to work just to live - again relegating this to the grad school idea.*p*I can see the reasoning behind the ideas but - my first gut feel*br*is that it asks a hell of a lot, but that is good as you only want those that truly have the dedication and drive to want to do this and that will be a very precious few.*p*Do you have ideas on where this could be done, or is it possible right now at some colleges.  I looked at the list of classes in your other post and they are a wonderful list.  I would love to audit some of those classes but have little hope of them ever being offered in any school near where I live.  :-(*p*This is very interesting.  *p*So, now how about something toned down for us working types that want to progress but not become an ordained celtic clergy person.  IE - a formalized home study course, correspondance type course but with a mentor required, and I do mean mentor required.   Again this implies that courses of study either be developed or taken from existing sources and adapted for such a purpose.*p*I will think more on this interesting proposal.*br* *p*
