You think that's funny?
---What is funny is how people do NOT think it is stealing to download someones elses work like a movie, music and so on. Stealing is stealing whether it is 5 cents or 20 dollar movie.---

What's even funnier is the fact it is not stealing. It is not even illegal to download, only to distribute without copyright holder's permission. In some countries even that is not illegal.

What is sick is how you religious zealots want to impose your twisted, psychotic morals on everyone else. More lives have been destroyed in the name of religion than all other 'causes' combined. Not exactly a group I'd want to be associated with. I'm certain that is of no concern to you. Anyone that is proud to be associated with a group that has a 4,000 year history of murder, incest, sodomy, rape, slavery and theft certainly has no qualms about lying. As with all religious zealots, the end justifies the means, eh?

---
Then you wonder why the jobs are being lost, lack of jobs, and lowering of living standards. God does not bless a nation that does not abide by his laws.---

OTOH, maybe it's because of so many bigots and hypocrites that hide behind religion to further their own agenda, usually not related to religion at all, but with goals of stealing even more, through deceit and threats by perverting true religion, from everyone else to enrich their own bank accounts.

But hey, don't let me deter you from your life of misery in the religion you've embraced. Just don't expect everyone else to be as excited about being associated with the some of the most appalling sociopaths in the history of the planet as you are.
