Affirmation of Love Certificate Certificate of Marriage Degrees Offered by ULC The Universal Life Church offers several honorary degrees which you may wish to have. These degrees are not academic, and you do not need one to be a minister. We offer them because so many people wish to have them, primarily for ego gratification. We believe (and U.S. courts have confirmed) that degrees in such fields as religion and metaphysics are honorary. No one can be more of an expert than anyone else when it comes to such matters. After all, you are the world's foremost expert on what you believe! All of these degrees are "accredited" by the International Accrediting Association, which is fairly meaningless, especially given the honorary nature of the titles. But this is important for some who have always wanted to have an accredited degree! Upon issuance, degrees are recorded in the official records and may be verified by Universal Life Church Headquarters. Doctor of Metaphysics. The church offers a course in Metaphysics.
