"Dr" Morey shows that his "research" is not dependable on the most basic level. Morey confuses two completely different Marys in history and then tries to cover this mistake with a lame excuse to his listeners by saying that this was just an "extemporaneous" speech problem. Of course, Morey counts on his listeners not knowing that he has been selling these "Bloody Mary" tapes for years without correction hoping his "extemporaneous" excuse will fly. Roman Catholic apologists no doubt will have a field day with this. Morey makes similar errors in other "research" he does as well. A classic example is his poorly written book entitled "The Islamic Invasion." Although many examples could be shown from Morey's faulty "Islamic" research, one will suffice here. Morey makes "Uhud" to be the name of the Islamic army general, instead of the name of the slopes below Mount Uhud some three miles north of Medina where one of the battles of Islam was fought, and later came to known as the Battle of Uhud! Morey says, "The Meccans had finally decided that Muhammad was a serious threat and approached his band with a large army headed by Uhud (page 83). The Muslims were headed by Muhammad Mustafa, and the Meccans by Abu Sufian, but the name of the place they fought at was Uhud! This is enough to show how litle this "expert" on Islam really knows! His research and his "excuses" cannot be trusted. Go to putfile .com and find lietenantcolumbo/media for more information about the "scholarship" and/or ethics of this man. The blogspot at "saintaugustinian" has many useful links. Hank Hanegraaff, director of the Christian Research Institute & host of the "Bible Answer Man" radio show whose founder was Dr Walter Martin who was a frequent guest on the John Ankerberg Show says "Dr" Robert A. Morey of Faith Defenders, Biblical Thought, Faith Community Church (FCC), California Biblical University and Seminary (CBUS), Bob Morey Live, and Doxological Apologetics is dishonest & unscholarly. Hanegraaff's comments come in reference to a report Morey wrote in his national "Researcher" newsletter attacking Gregory A. Boyd, author of the book, "Oneness Pentecostals and the Trinity." Boyd's book was endorsed by Hanegraaff & the CRI staff. In a letter by Dr. Boyd he states, "..."Truth-Seeker Bob [Morey] went after me with a vengence. He was trying to prove Hank Hanegraaff was incompetent in endorsing my book by proving that I was a heretic on the basis of my former book "Trinity and Process". He sent letters around the country telling Christian distributors to stop selling my books because I was (among other things) a process theologian, that I denied the Incarnation, I denied the Trinity!!!, and I was, in short, a closet liberal. His tactics half worked as my book sales dropped significantly. I still get hassaling mail from people about this. Well, to make a long story short, I have never in my life encountered, or even imagined, such blatant malice, deceit, and vile ungodliness -- let alone in someone who taunts himself as a Christian leader. At first I thought this was just an extraordinarily dull person (I had never heard of him before) who couldn't read, who had an extraordinary meglomaniac streak which made him want to be a "scholar." Hence he looked silly. But, as the case wore on, I began to see that the situation was far worse. He 'had' to understand my work enough to know 'how' to distort it. And, I began to see, he had to be lying intentionally to be so consistent and manipulative with them. This man, I finally came to see, WAS EVIL. He's a megalomaniac with a vengence, and so far as I can see, not an ounce of honesty or integrity to curb it with. This man is, in my estimation, very bad for Christianity, and very dangerous." The entire letter and other supporting documentation can be found by going to a hard copy pdf site on the internet called fileqube (.com)/ shfolder/10211vNiXWr and look for the report entitled "Recapping Events." Another useful site is the saintaugustinian (.blogspot) with links to multiple internet sites & blogs that expose "Faith Defector" Robert A. Morey for what he really is which adds support & documentation to what Boyd has said.
