are blasphemy law a restriction of the..?

Question

freedom of speach?

Answer 1

yup. blasphey is outright defiance of god. so saying god does not exist is considered blasphemy

Answer 2

The blasphemy laws ought surely be to hold men back from going too far.

(Whether this curtails so called freedom of speech is doubtful since a freedom can hardly be a freedom if it is subject to penalty)

Christ tells us , All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.
And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him, but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come, Matthew 12/31-32

Seen in this light, the blasphemy laws could serve us well, but whatever the worldly laws are, we are ruled by a higher authority which we we would do well to consider.

Answer 3

I have never seen such childish philosophy as Blasphemy.

If God is omnipotent how a mortal human being can insult Him?

This is idiotic to think that we can save god from insults or
God is our personal property that we can fix morals to define him

Blasphemy has caused more hatered, more deaths and cruelties in the name of religions

Thank god, Eastern Religions do not have such stupid philosophies
