CHRISTIANS AND THE COPYRIGHT LAW I've got strong opinions of Copyright Law anyway, believing it to be an outdated concept that has been overtaken by modern technology. But that isn't the reason why I find Copyright on Christian Resources to be a pain in the neck. If we call ourselves Christians, that means we're charged to go out and spread the Word Of God. That taks is made somewhat more difficult when one has to pay various companies for the priveliege of using songs, resources, or even Bible Translations that are Copyrighted by other people. But this site gives some even better reasons on why Copyrighting of Christian Materials isn't a very good idea. And actually goes as far as to suggest that the idea of Copyrighting Christian Mterial for Profit is going against Biblical Teaching. It's well worth a read.

Christian teaching is too heavy-handed and simplistic. Black and white, right and wrong, binary extremes with no middle ground. But is that realistic? Life is full of grey areas. Trying to imply that everything can be easily classified as One Thing or Another is just unreasonable.
