Despite finding punk the perfect soundtrack to the environment she left in the late 90s to attend university in England, where she completed an undergraduate degree in religious Studies and English Literature. This was followed by 7 years as a high school teacher of religious studies, before returning in 2006 to complete her education. A master's in Theology at the University of Glasgow was followed by a doctoral thesis at the University of Stirling, where she combined her multiple interests and passions of punk rock, religion, anarchy and D.I.Y communities. Since graduation she has worked part time in the religion department at Stirling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 188\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 12, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50369110802669,"sku":"9780367884437","price":100.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/8918\/9441\/files\/rp04eAQ2l9780367884437.webp?v=1785423597","url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/products\/punk-rock-is-my-religion-straight-edge-punk-and-religious-identity-paperback","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
