    It was you who started saying we have democracy, therefore per by definitaion shall we also have free speech. Therefore we can redicule the religions as much as we want.

    But im saying there is no definitions that says so.

    I am sorry? What? The GOVERNMENT is to gain the right to put certain icons/groups of people above the law AND even above the bloody constitution?

    actually if i remember correctly he has a point

    what if the church of the flying spaghetti monster existed for a while and demanded the same rights as christianity(Tax exemption for some stuff, preaching the flying spaghetti monster from door to door, not having to work on all religious holidays), just for the benefits, not because they believe


    i seriously oppose it though

    No, the Church of the Flying Spaghetti was created when they were debating mentioning intelligent design in schools. They said they would have to teach Pastafarianism aswell as satire.

    It went from banning blasphemy in Ireland to spaghetti monsters. Nice way of avoiding a lock...

    The Flying Spaghetti Monster is perfectly on topic, it constitutes what religions get this protection from blasphemy.

    WOULD the Flying Spaghetti Monster be considered blasphemy?

    Just people who try to implement it in government.
    I don't really think a Buddhist monk is an idiot.
