Blasphemy, Blasforyou

Some people in a major religion with 1.6 billion followers, some very extreme, want to criminalize blasphemy.

Well, This is very difficult to do on a worldwide scale considering there are 6.6 billion people in the world. How do you criminalize thought? Who is the group that decides what is blasphemy? Are there different standards for different religions? Are some more tolerant of the freedom of speech than some of the more sensitive? How much prison time do you get for blasphemy? Is the punishment for written blasphemy cutting off the hand that offends? Spoken blasphemy, cutting out a tongue?

Who is the fucking Hall Monitor? Hunh? What about Freedom of Speech? This Right is what makes America great. If the people in this religion think they are likely to subvert what this country is founded upon, they have another blasphemous thing coming.

You can believe anything you want to believe. I'll believe what I want to believe. I suggest you lighten the fuck up. Live and let live. If God, Allah, Buddha, Vishnu, Odin doesn't like what the fuck you say about them, it's in their own hands to exact vengeance. They are all powerful, right? They don't need your help.
