CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
Is P2P File Sharing Wrong?

Did someone suffer a loss?ebia said:
Can someone be guilty of stealing if it can't be proven that something was lost? A "possible sale" doesn't count as a loss because it's impossible to gauge whether or not if would've occurred. I agree this sharing violates copyright laws, but I don't believe it qualifies as stealing. The next question is to what degree can information be protected against copyright laws and when does it violate freedom of speech?
Anyway, calling file sharing "stealing" is a falacious scare tactic in much the same way people who call abortion "murder". The terms don't fit, but they'll use any means to persuade people to stop said actions.
