I think these fireside chats are great, but I would much rather see them
on the news server.
Chris, before you go on long tirades on socialism, familiarize yourself
with Ludwig von Mises book on Socialism. Socialism is not about "having
all things in common", but rather the government owning ever

I have to be clear. *Neither* says it is stealing. It is copyright
violation.
I believe he's just saying that it is called "stealing intellectual
property" only because the law of the land says it is, not because the
Bible says it is. The moral Biblical laws are immutable and unchangeable

Therefore there is

Yes but things that are wrong because they are against the
law, not because of some deep moral principle, can be
changed through the political process. That's why it's important
not to call it theft or piracy when it's not theft or piracy.

Show me that floppy or CD, whose logo and copyright are on it? Render unto them the

It's the GUI toolkit that powers the K Desktop Environment (and thus
BibleTime), Qtopia (the
GUI for the upcoming Sharp PDA), and Opera for Linux.
