I think the rather obvious reason they rushed the book was so that they could say, "Read this instead of that."IHAQ wrote: ↑Tue Nov 29, 2022 9:20 pmOne can profit in many ways other than cash.the_narrator wrote: ↑Tue Nov 29, 2022 5:48 pmWith how the book was priced, I doubt there would be any profiting from it, nor do I think getting $$ was ever a consideration for his book.

I agree. Philo’s you tube covers this briefly towards the end - that Bradshaw and the apologists wants people looking anciently, rather than at influences during Joseph’s time and place.the_narrator wrote: ↑Tue Nov 29, 2022 9:22 pmI think the rather obvious reason they rushed the book was so that they could say, "Read this instead of that."

It’s not completely clear what you found, can you post excerpts? Ideally, the comparison of the text from both places?the_narrator wrote: ↑Tue Nov 29, 2022 9:15 pmI have found a handful of places where it seems pretty clear that Bradshaw copied research from MI for his book--including one place where it is pretty clear that he copy and pasted a couple block quotes and the intermediate text.

Bradshaw changed the Junior to Senior to match the edition of Morgan's Illustrations that he was citing--showing that he was at least checking the copied portions--but he omitted the quotation marks in the intermediate text that indicates that the phrase was also from Illustrations.

Re: Interpreter Drops a Thanksgiving Bomb on Kofford Books
And there are many examples where it seems pretty clear that Bradshaw was copying block quotations from MI. For example, here are two block quotes from MI that Bradshaw seemed to take from MI (right) to use in his book (left). While MI uses them in the main text, and Bradshaw includes them in endnotes, the immediately sequential use of identical block quotes seems to indicate quite clearly that he was lifting them and the research from MI.
Coincidentally(?), DCP did something similar several years ago when he copied a block quote and the introductory text from something I had written for his own FAIR conference paper. (Wherein he also attributes other quotes to me that were by others.)

Would you mind posting the text for footnotes 609, 610, 611 and 612 in Bradshaw’s text?the_narrator wrote: ↑Tue Nov 29, 2022 9:58 pmLeft is Bradshaw; right is Method Infinite:

I know that’s a lot to ask, thank you in advance if you have time to do it.
