Not sure if this is the correct place for this as it relates to all religions, not just christianity - feel free to move it if needed.

Iceland's parliament has abolished its blasphemy laws, despite opposition from some of the country's churches.
The bill said it was "essential in a free society that the public can express themselves without fear of punishment".

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups
