Perhaps he is embarassed about it all, or forgot where he sourced the material.<br /><br />I often use material from other sites, but always accredit it and post a link to the original source. Surely that is good manners, let alone compliance with the copyright applicable to intellectual property.<br /><br />Somewhere in all of this is as you point out, integrity. I don't think that I could live with myself if I committed such a breach of manners and ethics. And I fear that I would be pretty upset if it happened to me, unlikely as I don't publish that much on my own blog. Just ruminate on things, rather than composing stuff worth copying.<br /><br />I hope that he has the grace to acknowledge his mistake.UKViewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18114944341930758335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2397377665790588556.post-41713636864424342742012-05-23T21:59:52.780+01:002012-05-23T21:59:52.780+01:00At least your sermon is being used as a sermon, Mi...At least your sermon is being used as a sermon, Michael. A piece I wrote a few years ago has been plagiarised in several places around the internet, and I discovered that it appears in at least one buy-an-essay website with someone else credited for it (and presumably taking a cut of sales). Huh! Attempts to get it removed or at least credited have, like yours, met with complete failure.Simon Khttp://thinkinganglicans.org.uknoreply@blogger.com
