I am a little confused on just how he committed fraud if he didn't know the thing was fake, or did not use the title Dr. or PhD.

Having NOT gone to a real University and spend a good part of their life doing dissertations, I could possibly believe that they were naive enough to think the course work, if any, and the 2 page "dissertation" requirement were legit..maybe. But I have a hard time believing anyone is that naive. I haven't been to college in years and I never graduated let alone got a doctorate but I know about the process, especially the final one. You are essentially required to write a book. It gets reviewed by a board at the University and they are not paid to pass you.
It's not an easy task, let alone all the hours spent in classes learning qualifying topics from men that have already done all that. You don't get PHds in Theology for being able to say "I've been preaching the gospel for 30 years" nor for self studying basic topics, taking one test and writing a 2 page paper...you have to rack up hours in a class room.
This kinda reminds me of some of the conspiracy theorists. The so called experts. They write books quoting each other as experts. How do you become an expert? You have a buddy on a radio show quote you. Then you quote him back and he becomes an expert too
