resistance fall of man Church of England Now Demands Money from Sony

A few days ago, Ron posted about the Church of England wanting Resistance: Fall of Man off the stores of shelves, along with an apology. Today, it was reported that along with the “de-shevling” and the apology, the church wants money, too.

Although, they’re not seeking financial gain in terms of damages–they just want more money to help out children.

It will be interesting to see if they actually have a legal cause of action. I’m not quite up on my intellectual property rights law in the U.K.

But according to IMPACT, the church isn’t in a prime position to claim any rights over the building.

    church has always been an institution of fools….this is just a demonstration in how deep the stupidity runs…..honestly i just cannot be surprised at this…this kind of thing happens far to often and the more humanity starts thinking for itself the more and more foolish church and the whole idea becomes. i dont mean to bash on faith, its religion which needs to die
