Can one be smitten for copyright infringement on the Bible? Well, it appears so.

” I am a jealous God,” He said, “but I am by no means unreasonable. If the person will stop distributing My copyrighted materials, there will be no further consequences. Like I’ve said before: hate pirating, love the pirate.” Ironically, some of those most likely to be hit by these measures are among God’s biggest fans. The Reverend Alfred Jackson is a minister at the church of St. Cecilia in Kansas City. In his spare time, he maintains the Bible study website “eChapter and eVerse,” which cross-references large parts of the bible with commentary from clergy and laypeople from around the world.

God said that ‘spreading the Gospel’ was not a valid defense for distributing copyrighted materials. “Rev. Jackson has published at least 35{a9f0d31f6175b3e4775e11a66c07db268fb74408d6095f6b46eeec420c0e9f62} of My word electronically, where anyone with an internet connection can download it. Thrice did I call on him to repent; thrice did he ignore me or refer me to the EFF [Electronic Frontier Foundation].”
