    The Irish blasphemy law must go. An embarrassment to the civilised world, it encourages the uncivilised one.http://bit.ly/2r0BKQX

        How about the more pressing Indonesian blasphemy laws which have led to a Governor prosecuted and sent to prison? #Ahok

        It is easy to demand to abolish such law in Western Country but if u genuinely want to help, ask the same to country such as Indonesia #Ahok

        Plenty of lobby groups pushing for it's demise. Unfortunately linked to constitution. Referendum required. Work in progress..

        They could make blasphemy punishable by a 1 penny fine, *technically* meeting the requirements of the constitution.

        Any blasphemy trial must include a statement from the injured party. Not the offended. End of trial

        What a bloody joke of a Law and an embarrassment for my Irish ancestors! Makes Ireland look worse than theocratic Iran.

        Last week our government brought in a rule where they have to stand for a prayer each day. In it that ask Jesus for guidance in their work.

        Agreed. I make the same claim over any law that legitimises religion. We need to repeal their tax exempt status, for example.
