It's not a hard concept to grasp. They're two different acts. But I fear I may as well be trying to throw a javelin made out of custard when it comes to any kind of logical (not emotional) debate with you. I'll just leave you and the rest of the head-in-the-sanders as lost causes, quaint antiques of a time gone by. The argument is over for most people. Copying does not mean theft, sharing does not equate to a capital crime punishable by lethal injection, your morals and ethics are no longer relevant.

pot-kettle. Far from over at this point. You're right about ethics not being hard to grasp, unfortunately some chose to ignore them.
