释义 |
St. John's University of Practical Theology was a school licensed by the State of Louisiana, formerly located in Springfield, Louisiana, It was founded by Rev. E. Arthur Winkler, Ph.D., a United Methodist & Disciples of Christ minister and clinical psychologist who died in 1998. He also founded an inter-faith church, the Congregational Church of Practical Theology.[1][2][3] In 2005, the devastation caused by hurricane Katrina forced the university to close. St. John's reopened in Temecula, California, and is accredited as a theological school, emphasizing training in clinical hypnosis, of which Dr. Winkler was an authority in. http://sjunow.org/about-st-johns-university/ HistoryIn 2007, a Florida journalist reported that St. John's had listed 11 branch campuses as of 1988, including branches in St. Petersburg, Florida; Misty Mountain, North Carolina; and Ibadan, Nigeria. St. John's University was incorporated in the state of Florida from 1987 until 1991, registered to June Bletzer, compiler of the Encyclopedic Psychic Dictionary.[4] In 2007, a school spokesperson told Florida journalists that the school had "private accreditation". A university catalog from 1998-1999 stated that the school was accredited by Accrediting Commission International, an unrecognized accreditor.[1][6] PublicationsSeveral books by Dr. E. Arthur Winkler are listed with St. John's University Publications as their publisher. Titles include Hypnosis and God (1976), The Power of Suggestion with Hypnosis (1989), and Hypnotherapy (1989).[3] AlumniAlumni include psychologist, author, talk-show host and product salesman Eldon Taylor, an exponent of what he claims is a subliminal learning method.
