Chris, this is interesting coming from you, the same person who referred to me as both "hitler" and I just found out while I wasn't even in the channel on irc that you said I had mental problem. I think you're not in any place to say what is and is not christian. Yet you accuse me of name calling?<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
I have no interest in winning an argument. For someone who calls people names such as you do, insults people, makes judgments, all to avoid humbling himself and apologizing, you definitely have no place saying such things. Seriously.<BR>

you need to actually read something instead of just citing it. Please point me to the specific word or words proscribing what you are referring to, or defining it in the way you said it is defined.<BR>
<BR>
Being condescending doesn't make what you did any better. It was wrong. Im honestly shocked to see such things by people who make bible software. <BR>

USC Title 17 § 107 contains the definition of fair use within the US.

Huh? Do you not understand copyright at ALL?
Start with USC Title 17 § 106. Copying a copyrighted work beyond the
implicit permission given via fair use and without explicit license is
copyright infringement. This is about as basic as it can get.
You really need to take a step back and consider ceasing from posting.
You're not going to win the argument. You're not going to win any kind
of respect or get anyone to assist you. And you're not even going to win
anyone's sympathies. Your posts make it clear that you don't actually
understand the law and choose name-calling, insult, and nonsensical
repetition as your tools of argument.
Please do cease. It will prove to us how Christian you are and put us
all in our place.
--Chris
