Crime of blasphemous libel proposed for Defamation Bil

the_syco · 2009-04-29 10:54:45

And here was me thinking that church and state were seperate. Seemingly not. I wonder what will now happen to you if you wear a t-shirt saying "Jesus is a c***", when "c***" ryhmes with "month"? Is this one step towards a bible belt? I acknowlegde that this law looks like it's for all religons, but I can see a lot of stuff…

For todays speech from Ahern see the above link. A press Release from FG TD Charlie Flanagan in reply to Aherns attempt to justify his actions is also on the thread. It is excellent. He's been one of the better TD's on the issue.
