Kopimism's single sacrament is duplication, and the church is precise about it in a way that resists the reading of the whole thing as a stunt. The copy is not a degraded version of the original; it has the same standing, and the act of making it adds to what exists rather than dividing it. From this everything else follows — the four principles the church publishes, creativity, copying, cooperation and quality, and the refusal to treat withheld information as protected. The doctrine has an obvious political target and the church has never hidden it. What is less obvious is how closely the position tracks arguments made seriously in information ethics and in the free software movement, which is why Kopimism is discussed in law journals more often than the other lines in this sweep.
