Dear Mona When in a formal situation - in the universities around this part of Wales (Lampeter, Ceredigion) - it is definitely God before Mammon. So in a formal situation it would be "the Reverend Professor xyz", or "Rabbi Professor abc" But I have also heard the same individuals referred to as Professor the Reverend... and Rabbis (with a doctorate) as Rabbi abc, or Rabbi Dr. In the work place of the university our Rabbi being known to all either as "Rabbi Dan" or "professor abc" (But never as plain Mr), and a Christian prof as Professor zyx or as Dr zyx or Mr zyx. But it can vary. In the pulpit it is up to the custom of the individual chapel or church which can vary greatly. Hope that helps Regards Jen --- On Fri, 15/4/11, the cohens <the.cohens.in.california@gmail.com> wrote: > From: the cohens <the.cohens.in.california@gmail.com> > Subject: Re: [GLA] Question about titles > To: GLAMORGAN-L@rootsweb.com > Date: Friday, 15 April, 2011, 5:40 > I am intrigued by your question as > one member of my family in England > was  a rabbi and is called Rabbi Dr. when other family > members refer > to him, but I have no idea what  they called him in > person and will > have to ask.  I have never seen the two used together > when reading > articles about him. > > I asked google the question "what do you call a minister > who is also a > doctor?" and turned up a lot of interesting wiki > pages.  You may want > to try the same thing, maybe trying Professor instead of > doctor, and > adding the faith such as Catholic or Methodist. > > One page  I read agreed with my thought that you > address the person > the way they prefer, I am not sure there is an overriding > rule of > etiquette. > > If you are talking about writing about the man, I believe > which title > you use will depend on the context. > > On 4/14/11, mona_sydd_yma@yahoo.com > <mona_sydd_yma@yahoo.com> > wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I hope someone from Wales (or more knowledgeable than > I) can answer this for > > me. > > > > If a man is a Professor of Law at a Welsh University > and is also an ordained > > minister, is it proper (and preferred) to call him > "Professor X" when he is > > preaching?
