The law disagrees with you.
You're asking the government to enforce your religious view on another person to the contradiction of the law of the land.
So I'll ask again, would you be ok with Sharia law being enforced in the U.S.?

show me the law that says anyone is guaranteed a profit.
if profits were guaranteed, id open a business tomorrow since its legaly impossible for it to fail, right?
id sing songs and write music since im guaranteed to profit from it, right?
are you ok with sharia law being implemented?
tell me what you think makes this sharia law?

Freedom of religion doesn't allow you to ignore neutral conduct laws. If your religion requires you to murder babies that doesn't mean you get to do it either.
The famous case is the peyote one from about 15 years ago. I think that case was wrongly decided and a lot of other people do too but no one thinks ANY religious belief should allow you to ignore ANY law that conflicts with it because of "freedom of religion."

They can't force their religion of profit on my so they can go and suck it. I pay for many songs and games, but that's because I want to, and for supporting the creators of them. It is not because they have any rights to certain permutations of bits on my hard drive.

Exactly.
These people are inventing legalities to push one idea over another.
Why do they get to craft laws in their favor over my cinstitutional right to worship.
Is it just because they spewed their bs first?
Its nothing like the peyote case because peyote is a legaly controlled substance, profits are not. Profits are assumed where a product is desired, not guaranteed.
Freedom of religion is guaranteed.
The only rhing violated by piracy is corporate greed.

Just speculating as Copyism is official state sanctioned religion in Sweden and freedom of religion laws are universal.
This has got to be one of the most stupid things i've ever heard.
Stealing doesn't fall under religious freedom, HTH. Can you guess why?

You can't violate someone else's rights no matter what your religion might dictate.
freedom of religion is a constitutional right
freedom to profit is not.
The artists have a right to be compensated for their work, and they have a right to decide who can distribute it.
Also, would you be ok with Sharia Law being enforced in the U.S.?
Sweet, I'm going to release an album then wait for the compensation to roll in!

Copyright issues and anti-piracy laws are a really good example of big government standing in the way of free enterprise. But the anti-government jihadists never seem to view it that way.
