Hey, did you hear about Ireland?
Apparently they recently made blasphemy illegal there. I don't know if this is true, since Mr. Kuus told me and he's an endless font of bullsh*t, but whoa if it is.
Re: Hey, did you hear about Ireland?
the Mr. told me that this weekend too...
so they're founting the same thing.
Apparently an athiest organization immediately published all sorts of blasphemous tings to push this to court. Huzzah for that.
Google seems to think your husband is not bullshitting you. Wow.
Disclaimer - this was the first hit on google. I've never seen this website and have no idea how credible it is.

tidbits:
- Atheists can be prosecuted for saying that God is imaginary. That causes outrage.
- Pagans can be prosecuted for saying they left
Christianity because God is violent and bloodthirsty, promotes
genocide, and permits slavery.
- Christians can be prosecuted for saying that Allah
is a moon god, or for drawing a picture of Mohammed, or for saying that
Islam is a violent religion which breeds terrorists.
- Jews can be prosecuted for saying Jesus isn?t the Messiah.
Ireland?s Blasphemy Bill not only criminalizes free speech, it also gives the police the authority to confiscate anything deemed ?blasphemous?. They may enter and search any premises, with force if needed, upon ?reasonable suspicion? that such materials are present.Crap...I Mean Crafts
this is the 'protest'..
