Irish anti-blasphemy law

guardian.co.uk/world/2010/ja … sphemy-law

Is this really a necessary state function in Ireland? It seems an unnecessary defense of people’s right–not to have their beliefs offended? A far cry from “fire” in a theater. Where is the line?

Ha ha mad stuff altogether!
I missed that one. I haven’t read the papers from home for a few weeks now. Judging by the way things were heading when I left 7 yrs ago the government seems to be bending over backwards to make it look like they’re making the effort to welcome our new outlander buddies and protect them from the heavy hand of Irish racists etc.
It’s all crap and will never actually be used unless someone publishes cartoons of mohamed or something

Jesus fucking Christ!

Can it be used against those who impiously deny that Prasangika Madhyamaka represents the highest tenet system?

And does the blasphemy actually have to be in Irish?

So now there’s three things in Ireland that can’t be joked.

Jesus Mary and Joseph those spuds taste like sh%te… I’m done for now :slight_smile:

Seriously what a joke of a law, it’s got everything arseways.
