What should a degree-less published researcher do?

Greetings, I am a published researcher in philosophy of religion. I also receive positive comments frequently and am confident that I shall be able to publish more. The catch is that I do not have a degree. What should I do? Should I wait for more publications? Suppose I do end up publishing in fairly reputable journals, say Q2 journals. What should my next move be? What else can I do, considering the field is philosophy. Even almost impossible suggestions are welcomed. Thank you.

What should I watch/read/listen to in the world of absurdism/existentialism literature or the two theories themselves?

After reading Camus' The Stranger and learning a little about Kafka, I've become fascinated with the ideas of absurdism and existentialism. If anyone can recommended me any YouTube videos, similar novels to Stranger, or any podcasts or audiobooks on said topics, I'd really appreciate it. I'm studying to become an English teacher, or film history professor on said topics.

Would there be any benefit in a philosophy minor as a pre-med?

As a high school student wanting to pursue medicine but also having a love for humanities, particularly an interest in philosophy. i have considered doing a minor but with the demands of being a pre-med student I do not know if this would be the right decision as it could be a "waste of time".

Philosophy, should I?

Should I major in philosophy? It has been a subject that I adore and I think I wouldn't have fun with other majors. I studied philosophy in my fun time and Ethics was my favorite class. Everyone's reactions to this major are making me question. Is it worth majoring in what I feel so passionate about?

What majors should I take up in college?

I'm interested in philosophy, psychology and english literature, and I can confidently say I can do well in these fields since its all I've ever been doing since I started to understand the importance and jobs. Although there aren't many good colleges or unis I can find that offer all three subjects as majors, and pose a good opportunity, especially in India. I need your help. #psychology #philosophy #english #literature #english literature #university #college #study #majors #overseasstudiesconsidered
