>Any books on this phenomenon?
none that i know of
it's something you gleam between the lines when reading ehrman, and even then it's almost like he's trying to hold back because they're all still his colleagues and friends.
This sounds like my claims are poorly sources but they're all true, Ehrman has made most of his career out of publishing 30-ish years of reaserch that has been well established in academia but gatekept from the wider world.
Other academics have had over 25 years to jump on the bandwagon, but fundies are very much against spreading this knowledge so they refuse to use it in their books unless when directly adressing criticism.
I mean, think of the catholic church. They teach most of this stuff in seminary school... and yet they never talk about it.
