What?!Where?!!
Why haven't I been told?!!!
It passed on Friday by one vote. Here's the Friendly Atheist link on it: http://friendlyatheist.com/2009/07/13/the-blaspheming-begins/. There are many other news articles about it.
The news makes me pretty sad, but the comments are pure win!

Re: Venganza People Google Map
Thank you!
I've been thinking - such a law actually plays right into the hands of people who would like the promotion of religions of all kinds to be done in private. It is my humble opinion that no religious sentiment can possibly be expressed without upsetting someone with a different view. That means that no religious sentiment can be expressed without the expressor putting themselves in danger of prosecution.
And the rest of us can carry on quietly observing our own beliefs without being harangued.
Door-to-door God-botherers can now have the Gardai called on them! Yay!
And atheists aren't at risk. Their is never any need for atheists to make any statements on religion whatever. Statements of fact aren't covered by this law, so simply stating a belief in accepted scientific theories cannot be called out by the fundies.
And all those rabid people trying to drum up support for suicide bombers etc. can now be arrested for offending Christians!

Re: Venganza People Google Map
Does that mean religious people can get sued for blaspheming atheists as well - you know, 'turn or burn' etc?

I adjusted my location! So now it shows me in the city, at the university. I didn't put it on my actual house, though, because you can actually see it... it's a little creepy.

Yes, security is a good thing, especially since we don't know where Ken Worley is right now.

Re: Venganza People Google Map
I'm on the map at last, folks.
EDIT: Hey, db, I know Camberley really well. You must be very near the 'Jolly Farmer'. Wish I had £1 for every hour I've spent lugging a rifle around in the shite on Old Dean Common!

Not such a good idea.
