What if God actually favours Piracy....

Religious institutions, in cooperation with educational institutions, could work together to communicate a strong message against digital piracy,” the researchers proposed.

So it's not actually what God says, it's what researchers are telling the religious institutions to pretend that they know God's feelings on this...
 
God can do and stop a lot of things apparently, all powerful, all knowing etc... but doesn't

Well he's not into Privacy... seems to know everyone's business... maybe a bit of a Peeping Tom going on there.
 
I suspect God's a bit busy stopping genocide, terrorism, famine, earthquakes, volcanos and floods... Oh, wait.

Also,

9. Thou shalt not bear false witness
10. Thou shalt not covet
11. Thou shalt not pirate movies, television, music, games and software... Oh, wait.

thats not god, its religion and the promise of eternal punishment.

if you pirate! you will burn for all eternity and so shall your children and your childrens children. dren dren.. dren and so forth until kingdom come. yar! oops

i know of people that say pirating is bad, but then they go and fetch content from people that get it online...
 
The first interesting result is that people’s attitudes towards piracy correlate with how religious they are. That is, people who are more religious have less favorable opinions about digital piracy.

Not sure I'd agree with their interpretation of their findings.

More than likely religious people are technophobes so hence don't know how to pirate.

Agreed, religious people are by definition more gullible and buy into the premise that piracy is stealing and that multichoice is good value for money.
