Blogging Courtesy and Copyright

In a way, this is a waste of blog space. However, the integrity of the Witness blog must be maintained. 

We are not in any way opposed to other blogs using our material; but we are opposed to having entire posts copy and pasted - not only is discourteous and disrespectful of the efforts put into writing an original post, it is also illegal

You may quote us, link to us, but you may not plagiarize us, and even try to claim our original work as copyrighted to yourself.

An unfortunate example is at catholicanada.com that has copied and pasted entire articles from our blog without receiving permission to do same, and further claiming that same is copyrighted to this entity. We notice that this website is replete with copyright violations. Please stop!
