"Abolition of blasphemy is what the EU Guidelines on Freedom of Religion or Belief are pushing for, it's what the UN Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief wants: a global repeal of blasphemy to protect everyone's right to convert."
But they can't say so. Too many immigrates… (Is it just my English-only sensibility that hears "in-grates"?) "If these six countries can't do it (Iceland, Denmark, New Zealand, Poland, Germany and Greece) what hope is there for countries that punish insults to religion with death?"
They don't believe in hope. We shouldn't, either.
We should take to heart the ancient maxim: Might makes right!
(If there was ever a short-list of countries that would be expected to evidence the results of the Enlightenment, wouldn't those be included? )
