There's a lot of non-commercial material on the 'net that that the writer doesn't particularly want to copyright (a lot of religious material is like this). They post it on the net for full public consumption, and dont mind if other people copy it and repost/republish it, as long as it they receive proper attribution for their work (website link, etc.). To them, since the dissemination of the material is the whole point of them writing it, they have no problem with people sharing it with others... as a matter of fact, they welcome it.
so that was what my question was geared toward, as far as non-copyrighted material is concerned (even though, as you said, even non-copyrighted material is still copyrighted in a sense... if that makes sense).
Blessings.

I understand what you're saying. I know that Bro. Atkinson has a couple of Bible Studies on his Apostolic.net site that are not copyrighted.
I guess you just have to be informed and know what's what, and what's cool to post and what's not. For the most part, the Admin Team has had to work pretty hard to get our members to comply with the laws. I started this thread in hopes that we would have more of our members better informed so that we don't have to work so hard. You've helped with that. Thanks!
