Is "illegal" downloading really stealing in God's eyes? Will we be judged for it by God?

It's not stealing. It is copying. If I see your chair and then go out and make one exactly like it, have I stolen your chair?
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 42977167 But if that chair is my own unqiue design and I get money from selling them, aren't you stealing my design? You should have bought that chair from me because I created it and it's my business. It is my intellectual property. You can't own an idea. Property exists because of scarcity. If all people had access to all resources in infinite quantities, there would be no property. Ideas are infinitely reproducible, therefore they have no scarcity and to count them as property just so you can secure an income is nothing but thuggery.
