>”We conducted a random inspection of several passages the software identified as suspect and found word-for-word duplication from works that predated the book. No attribution was given for these passages.”

We took nothing on “faith” and did research before removing the book. The Resources sheets are not a Bibliography and are not proper attribution for directly quoted material.

True story time. I live in Lewiston Maine and about 1995 our newspaper office switched to a computerized spell/grammar check and let go of the human checkers because it was felt that the computer was “faster, better and more efficient.” Guess what has happened people??? They have since fired the computer because it stunk. Nothing is as good as the human element. Further, I would argue that much like any other religious/spiritual text Ms. Moore would be hard pressed not to use others works in her own. One could hardly write a Chritian based text w/out using other works. Maybe you should have read her attached Resource sheets to see to whom she gave credit before allowing a computer to make decisions for you!
