By the way, around twenty years or so ago when I obtained a couple of MacPherson's books, I came to suspect that he missed the boat on why Darby seized upon the PTRT. It looked like marketing to me, like he needed a new shtick to sell. Whether that's really the case or not afterwards the PTRT was examined and realized to be useful politically and pushed by some concerns with deep pockets. But then we'd get into just who and what Cyrus Scofield was, who picked him up and gave him a new coat of paint, a whole 'nother can of worms. For those interested in such things as this thread was opened to discuss, it really is a tale of intrigue beyond international in scope and fraught with mysteries both enlightened and mundane.
