A reminder this government is also drawing up proposals for reintroduction of blasphemy laws. They know where they can shove their crucifix.

Do you have a link, not that I don't believe you, but I like to check before I tell other people

[-] ohulancutash@feddit.uk 2 points 2 days ago

A man was just convicted and fined for burning a Koran, under a blasphemy law by another name.

😂 Yeah must be because Christian and not Muslim specifically since their law on internet censorship forbid criticism against immigrations and the only persons convicted was for critics against Islam

Christian fundamentalism is a thing, just look at the USA and Kony.

Not that different from the Muslims you criticise. Just with a cross instead of a moon. You're pretty arbitrary at it.

All fundamentalisms seek to repress and are bad. Regardless of faith, fascism has no place.

I agree american church can be crazy but let s be honest between burning a bible or the kuran what will send to jail ? In Europe critic of Christian faith have never been punished by law for long time. You can do a piece of art that blasphemous toward Christianity and all u get is a place to expose it in a museum meanwhile toward Muslim it s jail or they simply kill you. It s really bad faith to say the two are similar

Criticism of Christianity certainly has been punished here! You're mistaken. Also, they are similar.

In Europe, eg in Ireland, the bishops were sacrosanct so much, that they could rape people and nobody would do shit because they had that much influence. And people who wanted to abort, were refused service and so basically got killed under the name of the Cross.

Or look at Poland, where Christianity is also still very much holy - so much that they erected a giant statue of Jesus. A waste of tax money if you ask me.

And that's not to mention a lot of countries have blasphemy laws still in place, and Sundays where stores simply are not allowed to open at all. Or how about sexual abuse in Churches occurring nowadays still?

Don't act and play dumb.

Source ? And about bishop rape tell me is it a faillire of the state like for miffant rape epidemic in england et they even vote to 'of do an inquiry or is it a faillure of citizen to report crimes ?

[-] Taalnazi@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago

Nice bad faith play. The source is your mother and literally go google.

There's no "failure of the state" or "vote"... or such excuse. Fuck off.

[-] bigmamoth@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago

Lmao Give a source bro it can t be that hard Trying to convince that one doesn't have a preferency treatment compare to the other when it come to the state is funny AF
