Many of the jobs I've looked at require only a High School Diploma. For example I currently work in Law Enforcement, and High School was the highest necessary education qualification.
I'd rather put my college degree to work somewhere, preferably somewhere with a higher pay grade.
Philosophy and Theology are both intense and difficult fields of study, and helped make me much sharper, with more attention to detail and precision in all my words and thought.
I'd think any employer would value these qualities, but more pertinently, is there work I can do with a BA in Philosophy and Theology, besides going on to the graduate level?
I really don't have the money for more school right now.

Someone asked why I didn't go into a field of study more germane to a specific career.
At the time, I was considering a career in theology, such as ministry or youth ministry. While I decided not to go the ministry route, I would still very much like to become a professor of philosophy, theology, or English, and my undergraduate work prepared me very well for all three. I simply don't have the money to get a Master's degree right now.

As a graduate , you could get involved in the education field and maybe get a sponsorship to study your masters from the same institute.
All the best , these are certainly two intense subjects...
There is nothing wrong with your field of study. We need masters in all subjects in today's world.

U r a scholarly person.u have read both very beautiful disciplines.Better look for a university which would offer you a master's degree under some scholarship program.once you have done your M.A in any of the three subjects(English,theology or Philosophy),teaching offers would run after you.
at this stage u can join some daily for the spiritual section.Like TOI has a special section on metaphysics

studying approximately why it is incorrect is an incredible guidance in itself. You look pre-supposing our cutting-side international is secure from such blunders. it is not. studying what those blunders have been all approximately is an invaluable element to nicely known. no remember if those issues have a cost in a capitalistic economic equipment (no remember if or not they are rewarding) is yet another question entirelly. adult adult males (who've a lifespan of roughly eighty years) might subject approximately it. Philosophy itself (that's over 3000 years previous) sees this as short. i comprehend the commercial revolution has allowed us to do wonderful issues interior the previous couple of centuries (which is composed of two very detrimental international wars, btw). yet that maintains to be no reason to reject all lifestyle.

If you wanted to make money, why didn't you study something that would give you marketable job skills???
Can you find a job at a church? Maybe as a coordinater or something?

I met a guy once with a BA in sociology and a BA in philosophy.
We went through boot camp together.
