If beauty isn’t an important factor in the Rose of Tralee, would it not make more sense for the judges to be blind?

Blasphemy! Blasphemy!

April 29th, 2009

The Irish economy is struggling like an evolutionary teacher in the Bible Belt. So our government has decided that what’s needed is a law to punish blasphemy. The country is falling apart, and instead of a government working to get us out of the hole they dug we get this shit instead:

“Minister for Justice Dermot Ahern proposes to insert a new section into the Defamation Bill, stating: “A person who publishes or utters blasphemous matter shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable upon conviction on indictment to a fine not exceeding €100,000.”

“Blasphemous matter” is defined as matter “that is grossly abusive or insulting in relation to matters held sacred by any religion, thereby causing outrage among a substantial number of the adherents of that religion; and he or she intends, by the publication of the matter concerned, to cause such outrage.”

This is crazy. It’s not the Middle Ages. If I want to call a make-believe deity names, then I will. If I want to insult idiots who believe that world is 6,000 years old and that evolution is a lie, then I will. These people are retards – the god they believe in is a retarded superstition.

Feel free to argue your case in a rational manner, it’s your right to free expression to do so. But it’s also my right to insult the ridiculous.
