How fitting for St. Damasus to represent archaeology, that is, to bring a

To which Bernard Means responded:

Without a graduate degree, RPA doesn't want him.



But wasn't he, sort of de facto, a Doctor of the Church? I believe Catholic
bishops traditionally are called "Dr." in some countries.

Does that count? Or do you need a degree conferred by mere mortals.

Or, of course, he could be grandfathered.
