Who blasphemes anymore? Will it still be in the lawbooks?

Even Ireland is whizzing past the U.S. We should hold our heads down in shame!!!

Six US states have blasphemy laws, with Massachusetts being the oldest.

They are just relics, not enforceable. Any idea of when Ireland’s law was last enforced?

Overall the Irish have progressed well since the 70's. They do have their occasional setbacks - a few years ago they weren't going to allow a 14 year old girl ribbon to England because they suspected (she was) she wanted to get an abortion. She finally got to go, but not until late in the pregnancy when it would have been more dangerous.

Bless their little cotton socks. We did it in the 1970s. Nice to see my neighbours finally joining us in the 21st century ?

Well, they just legalized abortion. There's hope the rcc is finally losing it's grip on
that country.
