Hilarious. You could not have made yourself look more ridiculous had you tried. BTW, my post contained a typographical error, not a spelling mistake. Not that you would know the difference.
And most Christians say "Oh God", "Good Lord" and so on without even thinking about it. I hear it all the time on R4.
DANGER WILL ROGERS...HUMOUR FAILURE...DANGER WILL ROGERS!
BWAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA...and mperhaps you could learn to spell!
Honestly, if you are going to tell someone to learn to read...at least have the good form to get your spelling right!
Actually yes, taking the lords name in vane has always been considered blasphemous.

Denying the holocaust is stupid, but it should not be criminal. There is a reasonable argument over the numbers of Jews murdered because the total European Jewish population in 1938 was 6,000,000 and clearly some Jews emigrated and survived.
Whatever the number murdered does not lessen the crime. However there are even Jewish writers who accuse Israeli politicians of creating a “Holocaust Industry” out of the suffering. Some put the figures for the gas chambers as low as 200,000 whish is clearly wrong and ridiculous, but also the 6,000,000 is mathematically wrong.
To comparable fictitious cartoons of Muslims is not comparable with real history.. I do not that when Muslims kill in the name of Allah or Mohamed, there is no such protest of using the names and images in vain
The Austrians charged him with breaking the law.
How complex is this?

"Thou shalt not take the Lord's name in vain" leaves little room for interpretation. There are no such explicit tenents in Islam. It's also hypocritical to say images are not allowed given the history of Islamic Art doing exactly that.
A few people trying to promote change in Western democracies are using this row to to achieve those aims and we (as a society) are letting them do it. I am pretty sure you will find that most of those marching, destroying property and murdering people (yes 14 people have died over this) have not read the relevent texts and are taking the word of an Iman. As would be the case for most Christians. Those Imans for the most part are leading political organisations mascarading as religous ones.

Does Islam allow explicit owner-occupiers, then?
taking the word of an Iman
Why are they taking the word of David Bowie's wife?
You may think I'm nit-picking. Call me old-fashioned, but I've always suspected people who can't get syntax right.
And I said "yes they were blasphemous, in the opinion of many". So mperhaps you could learn to read?
And no most Christians do not consider "Oh Christ" to be blasphemy. Though most vicars would rather we did not say it. This religion lark is all about interpretation of what are no than the original dodgy dossiers.

Probably the most ironic post ever on CUK?
PS. What has any of this religious nonsense got to do with free speech? I believe we should take the piss out of all religions as their followers are clearly a bit hard of thinking.

Some Islamic sects have stretched this to include Mohammed but note nothing in the Koran actually says that of Mohammed.

By the way your post is blasphemy and unlike the Muslim tenents under discussion saying 'Oh Christ!' is blasphemy in all Christian sects
You make the point for me. Thanks.
