A court in Poland has thankfully acquitted three women who had been arrested for blasphemy… all for hanging up posters depicting the Virgin Mary… with a rainbow halo on her head. They made a religious icon look good — something the Catholic Church struggles with — and for that, they were being treated like heretics.
Elżbieta Podleśna, Anna Prus, and Joanna Gzyra-Iskandar Podleśna faced up to two years in prison. But the court said that because their actions were centered around defending LGBTQ people and not offending religious sensibilities, they were not guilty of any crime.
