“To criticize a person for their race is manifestly
irrational and ridiculous, but to criticize their
religion, that is a right. That is a freedom. The
freedom to criticize ideas, any ideas - even if they
are sincerely held beliefs - is one of the
fundamental freedoms of society. A law which
attempts to say you can criticize and ridicule
ideas as long as they are not religious ideas is a
very peculiar law indeed.”
-Rowan Atkinson
