OMG firstly this would fail in my county because of the format there are strict guidelines on how you make a doctorate disertation.
The covers: on the top you need Logotip of the university, university full address, your title, in the middle you write doctores disertation and the title of your disertation bellow, lower right your name and surname lower left the date.
First page: the same shit as the covers
Next page: table of contents
Nex page: summary
Next pages contain the actual dissertation
After that: annexes dunno if i translatet that right, ussualy stuff you got your data from, raw data
After that: Curriculum Vitae
after that: a statement that, this is the product of your own work and that the results are correctly stated.
If you don do it this way you dont get a chance to defend your work and no degree for you. But everyone learns this form way before you write a doctors dissertation, its used when you write a seminar for high school graduation, or your university diploma.
Then when you quote something you put it in actual quotes and also write from where that quote is. Writing in (get book title) will just make the person reviewing your work throw it in the bin.
And in a doctorial thesis if you say somthing like: if you multiply the age of the earth and the present speed of the recesion of the moon the moon should be much further outward. You probably should show that by multiplying those numbers, and actually showing some numbers.
2.2 cm a year X 4 000 000 000 = 88 000 KM the current average distance to the moon is 384 000 KM so you see its um well damn i better delete that part
The university that issued him a doctorate degree based on this piece of crap should loose its title as an university.

In my country any academic title can be taken away if you plagiarised your work, but anyone can demand a review of your work. So can any one of you set the wheels in motion by your laws to take his title away because this is a discrase to the title doctor.

It is quite legal to defraud people in the United States using religion as that is a protected right under our constitution. Yippie!
well im lucky its not legal in my country article 228 of the penal code
Kdor pri opravljanju gospodarske dejavnosti pri sklenitvi ali izvajanju pogodbe ali posla preslepi drugega s prikazovanjem, da bodo obveznosti izpolnjene, ali s prikrivanjem, da obveznosti ne bodo ali ne bodo mogle biti izpolnjene, zaradi delne ali celotne neizpolnitve obveznosti pa si pridobi premoenjsko korist ali nastane za stranko ali koga drugega premoenjska koda, se kaznuje z zaporom do petih let.
Basicly it says if you scam someone in a way where in a deal your obligations cannot or would not be fulfilled and the other party suffers property or financial damage you can go to prison for up to 5 years.
They charged a woman that was selling "positive energy" she basically had a cult and was scamming people for up to several tens of thousands of euros per session.
I think the only reason they cant charge the catholic church with the same charges is because technically you give your money to them freely not expecting anything in return. But they cant say start selling forgiveness slips like they did in the middle ages.

Re: on Indulgences
Yea i think we are talking about the same thing, the church still claimed that an indulgence would shorten your time in purgatory not just negating the earthly punishment.
But still people get away with those kind of scams by exploiting this loophole. My mother used to go to an aura healer she would fix the holes in her aura LOL but she could not charge for the service do to this law, so you just gave her what you wanted to give for the service.
Edited by frako, : No reason given.

Re: on Indulgences
Except in this case there are no judges, juries, cops, the lawyer just tells you that they are there and gona punish you if you dont let him speak on your behalf to do that of course he needs money.
