The law does not inflict any cruel degrading punishment as happens in Sharia law.

It served a purpose because it was a restraint on the brainless antisocial vulgarity of the ignorant uncultured Maltese “midghi” who thoughtlessly peppered every other sentence with a vulgar anti-religious obscenity without even realising that he was being antisocial, uncivil and foulmouthed.

Let us not be hypocrites. The real objection to the anti-blasphemy law has not got anything to do with “freedom of speech”.

It is a manifestation of the atheistic rejection of the possibility that God exists and therefore his name should not be mentioned at all, not even pejoratively in vulgar intemperate speech by the ignorant who do not know how to be emphatic without being vulgar at the same time.

Charles Magri, in a free world people should have the legal right to give their own personal opinion on persons that other people hold as holy, even if the opinion in question is considered “blasphemous” by the religious.

Charles, blasphemy only offends an institution, which technically is only a group of people.

People tend to get offended when their god is insulted because they project their own self upon the god they believe in.

Any insult to this god will be felt as a personal insult.

Getting rid of the blasphemy law will remove the power of such institutions.

why does the blasphemy law worry you so much that you miss your sleeping hours? Why do you want to offend God? To show your ingratitude to the One who loves you? I am not missing any sleep over any blasphemy laws. So you want to remove the blasphemy laws. Let’s remove also the law that says you shall not kill anyone. That’s also God’s law. But it is in our Criminal Code. And why call upon the PN when it is in Opposition and cannot do anything? God forbid if ever the PN will be a liberal party because it will have to change it’s name, its motto (religio et Patria) and will remain in Opposition for zillion years until it will cease to exist forever. But you are just a cry in the wilderness and no one will give a damn for what you say. As if it was the catholics or religion that murdered these journalists. It was just the daily incitement of the mullahs who brainwashed their gullible idiots with the seven golden virgins in heaven if they commit suicide, that brought all this mess about.

Nine were journalists (No 10 was an economist who wrote a weekly column, therefore also a journalist) and 2 were police protecting the journalists. One was an unlucky janitor who worked in the building. So what’s your point?
