So this post itself has great intertextuality with the Bible.<br /><br />I did google search "blatant plagiarism" with "book of mormon". The top result jefflindsay.com, so I guess Jeff was just quoting himself, or has intertextuality with himself.<br /><br />It is fascinating to watch Mormons misuse the phrase "fault finding", when the phrase correctly describes the foundations of the Mormon religion -- fault finding with all of Christendom.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-81679353616933358342019-09-18T08:26:46.628-05:002019-09-18T08:26:46.628-05:00No library needed—just a Bible. “Swallowed up” app...No library needed—just a Bible. “Swallowed up” appears in the OT 51 times, NT 4, and BoM 22.

I realize the critics always pooh-pooh this kind of stuff. But over the years, this stuff really adds up.
