It has something to do with copyrighting religion. Everything Scientology publishes is copyrighted, even its religious texts (imagine if Mohamed's descendants charged royalties on the Quran or the Gideons were charged with distributing pirated material).

If you take something that does not belong to you and it was not given freely, compensation is in order..." That's pretty much how the Scientologists operate. Nothing is free once you're a convert, and whatever literature you pay for isn't yours, but rather on an 'extended loan' that will be terminated if you chose to leave the religion. “Uhh, such thought is so nonsensical.

If you take something that does not belong to you and it was not given freely, compensation is in order. The composer has to earn a living too so that they might write music, so to deny the composer or musician compensation is to starve them out of writing music.

According to the Bible, Christians are to submit to governmental authority "for there is no authority except that which God has established." Therefore, an affront to copyright law is also an affront to God. As someone aptly quoted above, "render to Caesar what is Caesar's." Christians don't get a free pass no matter their evangelistic justifications. Bias disclaimer: I am a Christian. Copyright is a form of property defined by law.

I was just pointing out that Jesus didn't copyright his Sermon on the Mount and Peter never trademarked the sign of the cross... in fact, Jesus probably would support copyrights, but he would also support that people pay musicians, not some fucktard lawyer in a suit... I don't think he would support the big record labels on this one. Zonath: I totally agree with your last post…
