The burning of the Islamic holy book in Denmark has stirred outrage in Muslim-majority nations. Critics of the Quran burning law say it would undermine liberal freedoms in the Scandanavian country.
Different issue. I’m not debating categories of speech. I’m saying that speech that expresses no ideas but that is significantly hateful to a group of people shouldn’t be protected.
There are trade offs here: offensive speech that expresses political ideas (beyond “we hate you”) is worthwhile and should be balanced against offense it may cause. I know this isn’t a nice simple black and white answer but I think the real world isn’t nice a simple. There are shades of grey. Other countries might weigh the tradeoffs differently and that’s fine. Doesn’t make this decision wrong, just that the tradeoffs are weighed differently to your intuitions
Blasphemy the Holy Ghost then deny the existence of Allah and prove it please. As an atheist you should have zero problems committing the unforgivable sins of the Abrahamic faiths.
Everyone check out the totally real not fake atheist here!
I knew it btw, I knew that anyone advocating cowardly appeasement would have to be afraid of a skydaddy and was so lacking in courage they would even lie.about their beliefs. When the going gets slightly tough we know who hides. Maybe pray harder next time and the zombie-jew will save you ;)
Blasphemy and racism are two very different things.
Blasphemy is a human right.
Besides, there are already laws against hate speech.

That’s a nice word salad to say you support blasphemy laws.
I don’t.
What rules does your skydaddy support?
I’m an atheist and you appear incapable of listening.
So you unambiguously said you support a blasphemy law, but somehow you don’t support blasphemy laws? Wake up.
Wtf are you talking about? Show me where I “unambiguously said [I] support a blasphemy law”
I am sorry you are overally sensitive to your skydaddy being insulted
I’m an atheist.

Oh FFS I’m not jumping through tour stupid hoops. Clearly not capable of a good faith discussion

You’re an idiot. I feel genuinely sad for you.
