Kopimism - the file-sharing religion

Sweden recognizes a new religion ... a religion of file-sharing! This newly acknowledged religion, Kopimism, holds CTRL+C and CTRL+V as sacred symbols.

The 19 year old founder explains that,
"For the Church of Kopimism, information is holy and copying is a sacrament. Information holds a value, in itself and in what it contains and the value multiplies through copying. Therefore copying is central for the organisation and its members," he said in a statement.

Apparently their site is currently down due to overload. http://www.kopimistsamfundet.se However, you can find an interview with Kopimism founder here.

Praise be to Napster!
