Well in any case Catholics could still to this day jail you if they hear you say "inapropriate" words. Like Stephen Fry is apparently facing a €25,000 fine if convicted under Ireland's 2009 Defamation Act after calling God an 'utter maniac'.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
