Do referrers get paid out of new members' £10 fees?

No. Paying a referrer out of a recruit's subscription would be a chain-recruitment pyramid scheme under the UK Trading Schemes Act 1996 and Trading Schemes Regulations 1997. Every member's £10 stays with The Dev Log. Members who reach 4+ active referrals unlock a Trusted Member badge and become eligible to apply for paid contributor work — payment is for work delivered, not for recruitment.

An independent member-funded broadcast and learning platform: ethics documentaries, an online classroom, a religious reform library, an elders-speak storytelling wall and a community feed. £10 per month via PayPal. Educational only — nothing here is legal, medical or financial advice.

Are any of the inventions in the registry granted patents?

No. The inventions registry at /inventions lists ideas, drafts and openly-published doctrines belonging to the community. Nothing on it has been granted by the UK Intellectual Property Office. Listing confers no monopoly, no licensing power and no advisory authority.

Multi-Faith Ethics — The Dev Log

Multi-Faith Ethics is The Dev Log's bridge theology: an exploration of the ethical common ground shared by nine world faith traditions. Reform, not replacement — every tradition keeps its wisdom; what is asked is only to drop the fear.

The bridge theology

Nine traditions share a single ethical floor: do no harm, practise compassion, act with integrity, serve the community. The wrapping differs by culture, language and history. The floor is shared.

Christianity · Islam · Judaism — love of neighbour; justice; covenant
Buddhism · Hinduism — non-harm (ahimsa); right action (dharma)
Sikhism — equality; service (seva); truthful living
Indigenous traditions — kinship with the earth; reciprocity; ancestor respect
Secular humanism — reason; universal dignity; common flourishing
The Doojzian Way — the synthesis: luminous, voluntary, reforming
