Mormon Discussion’s podcast production is certainly not connected to The Mormon Church aka The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It also is most assuredly not approved or endorsed by Intellectual Reserve, Inc or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
Any of the awesome content or the solid opinions expressed, implied or included in Mormon Discussion Inc’s awesome podcast lineup and production are solely those of Mormon Discussion Inc. and/or its program hosts and not those of Intellectual Reserve, Inc. or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Mormon Discussion Inc is a 501(c)(3) and is in the arena of journalistic work and is part of a free press. A free press is fundamental to a democratic society. It seeks out and circulates news, information, ideas, comment and opinion and holds those in authority to account. The press provides the platform for a multiplicity of voices to be heard. At national, regional and local level, it is the public’s watchdog, activist and guardian as well as educator, entertainer and contemporary chronicler. Under the “fair use” defense, however, another author may make limited use of the original author’s work without asking permission. Fair use is based on the belief that the public is entitled to freely use portions of copyrighted materials for purposes of commentary and criticism.
The fair use privilege is perhaps the most significant limitation on a copyright owner’s exclusive rights.
Subject to some general limitations discussed later in this article, the following types of uses are usually deemed fair uses:
- Criticism and commentary: for example, quoting or excerpting a work in a review or criticism for purposes of illustration or comment. A book reviewer would be permitted to quote passages from a book in a newspaper column, for example, as part of an examination of the book.
- News reporting: such as summarizing an address or article, with brief quotations, in a news report. A journalist would be permitted to quote from a political speech’s text without the politician’s permission.
- Research and scholarship: perhaps quoting a short passage in a scholarly, scientific, or technical work for illustration or clarification of the author’s observations. An art historian would be able to use an image of a painting in an academic article that analyzes the painting.
- Nonprofit educational uses: for example, when teachers photocopy limited portions of written works for classroom use. An English teacher would be permitted to copy a few pages of a book to show to the class as part of a lesson plan.
- Parody: that is, a work that ridicules another, usually well-known, work by imitating it in a comic way. A comedian could quote from a movie star’s speech in order to make fun of that star.
Whoohoo! History… must be banned, because of course, it is more True Revelation than “God” would allow? Perhaps it is because “God” does not want us to see His “nakedness” of forever changing his mind, being loving one moment and bullying and abusive the next, forevermore.
@Tom M,
Not sure if you listened to the other podcast I do that is more explicit (SMRL Podcast) but we just did an episode called “God Hates Everything About You” which we talk about the loving / abusive supposed nature of “God”
I have an inkling that the destroying Angel is the danites who are in the palm of BY’s hand to enforce his every wish. Right then it was his wish to enforce polygamy by the sword in order to camouflage his own demonic life style. I’ve read of the husband entitled to lift the veil over his dead wives faces to resurrect them. If they weren’t 100% obedient or on just a whim he didn’t have to resurrect them by lifting the veil over their face!!! He actually acted in place of God. God didn’t pass judgement on the woman, he did. THERE ARE NO WORDS FOR THIS EVIL! And SHOCKINGLY they just barely changed the rule from mandatory to optional for women to have their faces covered with the temp!e veil when their coffin is closed….THIS IS STILL GOING ON IN 2019!!!! THIS THIS DEMENTED ABUSIVE ATTITUDE TOWARDS WOMEN!!! IT MAKES ME LOOSE MY MIND WITH RAGE!!!!
Okay. It’s that you read alot. Want more of your thoughts and words. Anyway. I showered butt naked with dudes all the way through school, military, mtc, college. Isn’t that most guys experience? The inutiatory never phased me. No one ever touched me there.
