Blasphamy laws and resolutions are totally unjust and breach human rights.

Religious organisations know that historical facts, science, common-sense and reason totally disprove their corrupt teachings. They want to silence critics so that the truth is hidden.

Religious leaders want the right to indoctrinate people with their distastful mix of violence, intollerance, sexism, homophobia and repression, without question and without criticism.

This all demonstrates the root problem with all religions. They teach blind faith in nonsense that they cannot defend by reasoned arguement, so they resort to violence and repression instead!

Only a secular society can ensure true freedom of speech and expression and help to free the world from the bigotry of religion and the wars and division it causes.

Religion. Wow, that’s still around. Some people are so friken stupid. The only law tha should be around is the law against religion asking for laws.

there should no laws whatsoever against blasphemy, as all religions are total B.S and nothing more than a form of mythology.
Religion is used for a sinister form of mind control and unfortunatly it seems to be working a large number of people.

Dear Newspaniard, I don’t think your observation in any way negates the excellent points about the continuing self-interest of Xians made by Marcus or my point that their current position still shows no interest in human rights as such.

Marcus/Ziggy… Yes, but it’s been a few years since Christians demanded the death penalty against blasphemers, where Islamofacists are demanding it as I write

Thank you, Marcus – my sentiments exactly.

Xians aren’t interested in human rights, only their own rights.

Anyone detect a whiff of irony about this report? For centuries Christians gleefully supported anti-blasphemy laws, and there are many Christian countries which still legislate against blasphemy. But now that there is a possibility that ISLAMIC blasphemy law might be used against Christians, they are screaming their tits off about freedom of speech. Un-bloody-believable!

[...] as the Christian Post (via) reports, Christian leaders are starting to cotton on to the dangers posed by these resolutions. [...]

Good point, Newspaniard. If the UN doesn’t uphold genuine personal freedom it ceases to have any obvious function, beyond its original role as a standing conference of nations.

Oh, I checked Ali Sina’s site – if anything, he’s a supporter of the US Republican right, so he’s hardly someone to be quoting with approval here.
