Here’s my opinion about the ruling. FAIR should have won, it was a parody site. Sandra Tanner should have copyrighted and she didn’t.

OTOH, Gerald and Sandra Tanner get away with a lot of editing of LDS church history. They are/were very good at taking a quote out of context. In 1999, the Tanners were asked by the LDS Church to remove the 17 pages of the LDS Church handbook the Tanners had posted on their website. The Tanners refused and the LDS church sued. It’s a matter of copyright laws. Only, maybe it isn’t for us members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints?

And I don’t agree with the parody website. I don’t want to be holier than thou, but I don’t think it was very Christian or kind to post a site like that. I’ve run across some sites like that and they aren’t funny to the recipients. At least that is my 2 cents worth.

I suppose nobody likes it when their ox gets gored BUT that is the price of living in a free society with the First Ten Amendments to the Constitution. I am willing to take it on the chin from a satire site in order to live in freedom.

What kind of religion hides its beliefs?

Anyway, its all over wikileaks now.
