The Thread about Internet Piracy, Revisited!

[Nameme99]

I've done that. XD

Guilty as charged.

well....

never pirated any games yet...
probably won't, don't play many games in college lol.
don't believe file sharing is wrong.
think games/music/art should not have price tags. i know i would give away my stuf for free as long as i got credit for making it.
that is why i like things like firefox, open-source stuf with public licenses. at least on a concept level.

there are things money should buy, definitely. but i do not believe art is one of them. i think here in america (and the world for that matter; see china lol) we merchandise and commercialize way too many things, things that become tacky when this is done, mostly because many people are obsessed with money. and if this money-obsession is not the "serving money" Jesus was talking about, i don't know what is...

that all being said, it is like having any bad authority. i don't agree, but will try not to defy them, in order to show them Christ's humility and my total faith in God's total sovereignty.

idk, my two cents...

I think it's wrong. I haven't pirated anything off the internet. I have used hacked things though. Since then my brother also decided it was wrong and got rid of all the things he has and repented so yaaaaa.

Yeah, I kinda gave up on this one. I gave my opinion but it seems many want to flirt with "gray areas." I'm way to balck-and-white to argue it. There's sin and there's not sin and Jesus specifically said to follow the rules of your governing body. So... yeeeeah.
