The crux of the problem is that open/free source are _clearly_ providing solutions that further the sciences and arts. As a result, what right does a patent (a monopoly created in the hope of promoting science & arts) have to countermand the rights of open/free software (proven promotion of science/arts without the need for a monopoly).
