Stealth mode - using the sins of Ravi to pretend it refutes OSAS when it is actually the conscience of the poster obsessed with Ravi making a faulty comparison to itself as if it is not as bad as Ravi is perceived to have been. stealth mode is how pride struts its stuff dontchaknow.

Dude, how many times does someone have to tell you not to pretend to read someone's mind/conscience, and put it in print on this forum?

Vincent Ramik

Senior partner of Diller, Ramik & Wight

Patent, trademark, and copyright law In 1981, Attorney Vincent Ramik, a specialist in patent, trademark, and copyright law, was hired to investigate accusations of plagiarism against Ellen White. Ramik was given all the allegations of plagiarism from the first raised in 1889 to 1981. He examined all the relevant books by Mrs. White. After more than 300 hours of research, he concluded that Ellen White was not guilty of either copyright infringement or literary theft. He stated that if she were alive and had been the subject of litigation, he would volunteer his services to defend her in court, so sure was he of her innocence.

Yeah, I don't know what Vincent Ramik could have done for Ravi Zacharapist AKA Ravi Zachadultery, if anything (Ramik's expertise isn't in defending Rape or molestation charges, or even reputations). Game, set, and match declared by Ravi's own church.

Yes, if bulls had teats they’d be cows.

Incredible, the attorney was hired and instructed to do damage control for the thieving prophetess and low and behold, he delivered using the art of words - which were simply a paid for opinion that never was subject to being under oath. And he scored 300 billable hours!

One who justifies her rampant theft is likely equally guilty of breaking the Law.

A Copyright Attorney Examines the Writings

In 1981 the church hired copyright attorney Vincent L. Ramik of the law firm Diller, Ramik and Wight to examine Ellen White's writings and present them with his conclusions. Two factors should be considered here, which make the story even more fascinating:

1) Ramik had been raised a Roman Catholic (though not a "practicing" Catholic at the time of his research [read interview below]) and one of the books he examined was, in fact, The Great Controversy—not exactly flattering to that Church or the Pope.

2) Ramik later admitted in an interview that he had been biased against Ellen White when he went into the project, for he had read the work of many of her critics from D.M. Canright right up to the pre-publication manuscript of The White Lie itself.

Nevertheless, after more than 300 hours of researching approximately 1,000 relevant cases in American legal history, Ramik's conclusions were as follows:

"Based upon our review of the facts and legal precedents, we conclude that Ellen G. White was not a plagiarist and her works did not constitute copyright infringement/piracy." (Adventist Review, Sept. 17, 1981)

"Considering all factors necessary in reaching a just conclusion on this issue, it is submitted that the writings of Ellen G. White were conclusively unplagiaristic." (Ibid)
